Back in my teenage years, I tried to be everything at once. An average party girl clubbing every Friday night, a hiking fanatic conquering some mountain on Sunday mornings, or a passionate football player drilling on the field on the weekdays. I wanted to try it all.
But as I grew older, I started preferring a slow life with lazy weekends where I refused to jump out of bed for anything. And when you look at this incredible thread you will see that I am not the only one who suddenly had a change of heart. Just scroll down to check out these fascinating changes for yourself!

Quiet days. Days when there is nobody else around.
Edit : I wish you guys would stop responding to this. I want my peace and quiet.

My wife.
I thought I was at 100% when we got married. Here I am sitting at 235% like a bad game of smash bros.

How little I care what people think of me. I still wrestle with what I think of myself, but peer pressure does nothing to me anymore. Freedom!

Being very selective with whom I spend my time with. I do not have any interest in meeting new people constantly. I like who I like.

My mate retired 18 months ago, at 70. He rarely answers his cell phone nowadays. I asked him why, he said “my life is really good, I enjoy everything about it. No one has ever called me with good news”.

Generally speaking, I don’t feel bored anymore.
Shockingly enough, when there’s nothing to do… I actually sit back and do nothing.

Old people. Could see them as boring in the past. Now I am fascinated by their experience and knowledge. In comparison, I feel disappointed by the current generation of young people who love a lot their phone and social medias. In comparaison, old people seem to have more to share, they are less boring.

Mornings.
Spent years in the service industry, working til 10PM, hitting the bar after, up til 3 AM every night.
Switched lines of work, started getting up earlier. Now im in my mid 30s and theres nothing I like more than getting up early, even on the weekends, and just having the whole day ahead of me.

Talking to people. My favourite thing is to learn, and everyone has a story to tell, or wisdom to share. Knowledge is power.
