I have no kids and just recently got married. I don't have any big career, though I do have a steady job. I still rent an apartment, I've never owned real estate. I have gained quite a bit of weight over the past 10 or so years, even though I do exercise 3x a week. I feel like I should have accomplished more in life by now. True I haven't totally effed it up by ever going to jail or anything like that, however I feel like I just haven't done much. Even other people I grew up with who weren't that smart, they seem to have normal lives with families, nice houses, good careers. I just feel so mediocre. OK well thanks for reading this.
My friend, just be nice to other people and make them happy. This world needs nice (and I don't mean appearance-wise) people. If you're one of them, be proud of yourself and spread the happiness.
You'll feel happy because of making other people happy.
