Things that I learnt recently about life is life full with surprises and unexpected events.

In your life, you have to be grateful on things that you have right now. A place to stay, a car to move around, sufficient savings and a job or business and good health

If you read the news about government retiree that lost his houses to the gas leak. You see, that old guy already ready to have a comfortable retirement life, but life happens and he lost everything.

Another thing is I surf reddit frequently and check the sub for r/jobs, r/recruitinghell, r/layoffs. Too many people especially American lost their job struggling to find a new job due to the terrible job market on Trump administration.

They lost their savings to pay their bills and rent and still unable to find a new job. Most of them need to restart back their life again after getting new job.

I don't want to complicate thinking about my future. Just focus on the present.

Another thing that I learnt is don't judge other people too much. Things that you judge too much eventually will hit and bite you back. You may thinks that there's nothing going happen to you RIGHT NOW, but who knows when god want to test you when you're in golden age.

It's going to affect you badly when that thing happen when you're old.

if you met certain old people that have anger issue or always grumpy are usually people that take their job/work as their main personality during their younger days.

When they are officially retired, they've no longer have that kind of identity and they struggle to adapt life as retiree.

People that spend their younger days on play and enjoying their hobbies after work, not taking work as their own personality will eventually have calm retirement life.
