I’ve been trying to sort out my thoughts on this for a while now, but having reached no answers I thought I’d pitch it to some of my peers.

At the ripe age of 34 I think I’ve done pretty well for myself. I’ve got a cute wife and awesome son who love me, and a job that pays pretty well. My social life is likely sub-passable, but I guess that’s common for guys in my age range. I just have to wonder though, is this it? I mean, work, work out, be a good dad, be a good husband, listen to some podcasts, get to bed, hang out with friends when the stars align, and just keep repeating that?

With only so many hours in the day, balancing work and my relationships really doesn’t leave me with much time aside for a few hours in the evenings to unwind before the next. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a pretty comfortable routine, but I’m kind of wondering whether or not this is just it for my growth and development as a person. Being stuck in a rut for the remainder of my life seems kind of….I don’t know, bleak?

I was wondering if this was something any of you all ever thought about, and what your feelings were on it
