Fullfilled

[nailit]

Does anyone here on AB actually feel fulfilled in life?
Don't mind admitting that I don't.
Im 52 and not once have I felt fulfilled. Not saying that I don't appreciate or enjoy life at times because I do (especially after last year, for those that remember my posts then) but there seems an emptiness that isn't been catered for.
And before the religious start, ive been down that path....
Maybe a bit of existential angst, I don't know. My cousin died at the same age as me a few years ago, maybe been a bit morbid or something!

Oh dear, misunderstood again.
No I guess I was hoping somebody could articulate it better than me.
Working for what you have is part of a refining process that helps build a more rounded person, as against somebody, (born rich), who gets a leg up the ladder at every turn.

Any award for initiating a thread which attracts the most maudlin and self-pitying posts, Nailit?

If so, you've won it.

PS: Competition time - does fulfil[l]ment come with one, two or three "Ls"?

[ummmm]

Most posts are positive though.

Margarettom 19.57 second page, totally agree.

I suspect it is quite comforting if age and infirmity mean your aspirations are limited.

Rowanwitch I find it as frustrating as hell that certain things that I would like to do I can no longer do or plan to do...and my infirmities are minor.
