A few days ago I had the most extraordinary lunch with a friend. We covered many topics, but one thing she mentioned has stayed uppermost in my mind since then.Over the course of lunch she said she feels like she has already done what she came here to do, so she can relax and enjoy the rest of her life. I find that such an amazing way to view the world, particularly for someone only entering their third decade, as she is. It seems like a blissful way to go through the days and nights. I'm so happy for her.
I definitely do not have that sense. I feel, instead, that I have much I need to do before I leave this existence.
The thought of feeling like you've done what you came here to do, and you can just enjoy your life, sounds incredible to me.
And only a distant dream.

Good grief!! She's done all she was meant to do and she's not yet forty?
I'm twice her age and have enough left on my plate for another hundred and forty years. But I intend to enjoy every minute of it.
She's just 30 and feels like she has accomplished what she was meant to do in this lifetime - now she can just enjoy life. I can only imagine how wonderful that would be.
