The student came to visit the 78-year-old grandmother and asked her to assess the life lived, the answer surprised the young girl

Many of us are very afraid at the end of life to realize that it was spent in vain. People usually regret what they haven’t done or tried. They chose the wrong profession because they were afraid to take risks. Or they didn’t travel enough and see the world. Everyone has their own fear. Someone is very afraid to be alone and end his life without a reliable and beloved partner. So what are we really living for and what is most important?

Perhaps the biggest problem is that impossible. No man in the world has the resources to try everything and get the world at his feet. Some don’t have much money, some don’t have much money, but they don’t have much time, others have the first and second, but they don’t have the energy or ambition. One of the wisest decisions in this case is Recognize that you will never get everything.



After such a decision has been made, calmness. You narrow your requirements, realizing that not everything in the world you really need. Another important point is that at different times in our lives we will need different things. It's okay if what was relevant to you in your 20s stops being relevant at 40.



It is normal to change your direction in life. The main thing is to do this consciously, and it is also desirable to have at least some plan in mind. For example, do not quit your job without thinking in advance where you will take the money. Money is one of the most important resources in our society. Fortunately or not, it has almost always been so. Having a reliable financial cushion, you not only acquire pleasant things and maintain your health in good shape.



Money, Needs and Meaning of Life Money also gives you peace and confidence in the future. And these things are almost the most basic to human happiness. It is important not to forget that mindless accumulation for the sake of accumulation is harmfulIt’s people like that who regret a lot of things at the end of their lives. It's one thing when you don't have the resources for something. It is quite different when in the race for resources you forget your true desires.



It is also important not to compare yourself to anyone. Just because someone considers a huge family and a bunch of grandchildren a must-have life doesn’t mean you need it, either. This can be said about almost every aspect of our lives. Huge love long in life, endless travel, extreme sports, loud partying with friends...



It's all beautiful, but not necessarily. So that at the end of life there is no regret. Happiness in the moment. Realizing this gives us endless possibilities, because you can enjoy every day and almost anything. Unhappy are those who are always looking for “real” reasons for happiness and can’t find them. And this is not surprising, because nothing in this world can delight us indefinitely.



Life wisdom and editorial advice Don’t forget that life is fleeting. Don’t be afraid, but it’s important to remember that Our time will come to an end someday.. Only those who truly regret their lives spend all of it in search of something that does not exist. What are we living for? To enjoy and enjoy.
