The way I see it right now, I've already lived half my life.

I haven't discovered anything. I haven't created much of much benefit to many. I haven't had any kids or left behind me a legacy of any level of greatness. But I've survived my upbringing. And that, to me, is enough most of the time.

The next half of my life may contain more years than the first half, but will go pass by just as fast or faster than the first half.

I think the easiest way to make my life feel longer is to add drama to it. But I'm SO drama averse.

Maybe a little bit of it would do me some good. Maybe I'm not at the optimal level of both drama and happy-sailing. I mean, maybe the balance is tilted a little too far in the latter direction...
