For some people, everything happens at the right age, at the right time. They get a job at the right age, get married at the right age, buy a house, and have a very comfortable life. They work towards it from their school days. And how do they feel in their midlife?
One of my cousins moved from native to a busy city and have/had a successful life. But when he visited native, I noticed a few things. He also feels that he is a failure. lol. midlife change(crisis). And he hates city life. I think people relate their tough period in life to the city they live in and start to like/hate it.
In teen age and in his 20s, when he discusses any business plan, he will be more eager and energetic. Now those things are missing. I started to doubt whether he has a job or not. But I can not ask.
Our belief system changes during midlife. And our life experience teaches us new perspective. It does not mean the past is wrong. Without crossing that, pne can not reach mid life.
It is like attending school to prepare a person to go to higher studies.
When studying master's degree, one can not think UKG education was wrong. lol. Without that, this stage won't happen.
My new hobby is observing people in their midlife change. Very fascinating.
