4 Stages of Life; Stage 2

Hello again. So in this entry i will invite you on the stage 2 of life. In Stage one, we learn to fit in with the people and culture around us. Stage two is about learning 'what makes us different' from the people and culture around us. Stage two requires us to begin making decisions for ourselves, to test ourselves, and to understand ourselves and what makes us unique.
Stage two involves a lot of trial-and-error and experimentation. We experiment with living in new places, hanging out with new people, imbibing new substances, and playing with new people’s orifices. Stage two is a process of self-discovery. We try things. Some of them go well. Some of them don’t. The goal is to stick with the ones that go well and move on.

The "best friend"

We all have that 1 person in our life when we want them to be more than just a friend. As a sister? Brother? Nope. But as a lover. So we wait for them, more than we could ever imagine. Somehow you're willing to wait for them, years after years without feeling bored. Is this "Love"? We wait for them, without them knowing that we actually like them more than just our best friends. But why? Why do we keep this such feelings to ourselves when we know it hurts us the most? How can this massive pain be so addictive? Is this "Love"? We keep it to ourselves because we might not want to ruin what we have with them. We don't want things to be awkward and end up destroying our many years of friendship with them. Until 1 day we are ready and we finally have the courage to tell them. In hoping they have the same feelings for us. But how? How do we keep the feelings hidden for so many years but yet have the courage to tell them now? Is this "Love"?

4 Stages of Life; Stage 4

People arrive into Stage four having spent somewhere around half a century investing themselves in what they believed was meaningful and important. They did great things, worked hard, earned everything they have, maybe started a family or a charity or a political or cultural revolution or two, and now they’re done. They’ve reached the age where their energy and circumstances no longer allow them to pursue their purpose any further. The goal of Stage four then becomes not to create a legacy as much as simply making sure that legacy lasts beyond one’s death.  This could be something as simple as supporting and advising their (now grown) children and living vicariously through them. It could mean passing on their projects and work to an apprentice. It could also mean becoming more politically active to maintain their values in a society that they no longer recognize.
