One of us is thinking about quitting due to work pressure + taking care of family (Kids)
After 2 decades of work , it is time to really think about doing the right things before it is too late to regret. There are much more in life than just networth. You may be financially wealthy but life poor. It is time to rethink if this rat race is worth more than what you are giving up for ( family, kids, giving back to society, etc)
It is not about the quantity of net worth but the quality of life that matters.
Anyone feeling the same way? |
You are not alone, yes happiness does not equate wealth and money isn't an end by itself more of what you can do/help/enhance yours/family/relatives and even strangers lives. Of course I am sure after prudent consideration, purpose of it all, one of you could resign and focus on other matters in life. We really can lead a simple (not simplistic) life. Do not worry over what to eat what to wear or put upon your feet, trust and pray go do your best today, leave it in the hands of the Lord. This might be a spiritual hymn but it holds too much truth in this Worldly earth.
