Mid-life crisis

 Ill start by mentioning and explaining what i mean by middle-age crisis, not necessarily the real one but nonetheless it feels like one ....

Definition of Personal crisis: 

A personal crisis can occur when events of an extraordinary nature create extreme tension and stress within an individual which require major decisions or actions to resolve. A crisis situation can revolve a dangerous situation such as extreme weather conditions or a medical emergency or long-term illness. A crisis can also be related to a change in events that comprise the day-to-day life of a person and those in their close circle. Such situations may be loss of a job; extreme financial hardship; alcoholism or addiction and other situations that are life altering and require action that is outside the "normal" daily routine.

Definition of mid-life crisis: 

Many middle aged adults experience major life events that can cause a period of psychological stress or depression, such as the death of a loved one, or a career setback. However, those events could have happened earlier or later in life, making them a "crisis," but not necessarily a midlife one

Now , i know that wikipedia is not the best source to look for important information, but it is always available and easy to find what you are looking for.

But the texts above explain exactly how i have been feeling lately, the last few months have not been easy, neither for me nor for those around me :-(

I heard a song today, which happens to be one of my favourites 

It takes a fool to remain sane by --THE ARK--

An incredibly good and very talented Swedish group ( that sings in English )

I guess i have to be a fool to accept some of the things i accept and still be able to remain sane...

but lately i have been thinking long and hard about life, what i want out of it, what do i need in my life and what compromises am i going to have to make to be able to get where i want to get.

It is not easy..... life is so hard at times and the decisions that we make are sooo challenging and arduous that leave me and will probably will keep on leaving me completely drained out of energy.

Everything in life, from how your parents educate you and teach you through life, from their own experiences, to the decisions that we make and the life-experience that we accumulate forms us to the person we are today, "today" will keep on evolving, depending on which commitments we make and how we live life, the choices we make etc etc.... And this choices are not always easy and the decisions that come along with them are even harder to make.

Today im lessened cause of this decisions and the situations that life has put me in lately. 

Well thank god for songs like the one above or madame butterfly by Puccini, one gives me strenght the other one calms me down :-D 

I hope you all have an easier day than me today and wish you all

the best !!   :-D 

Take Care and see you soon
