for sure, people get to a certain age and lose the ability to just have fun sometimes or take a day out to do something interesting 

I think taking time aside to do fun and nourishing things is just so important. It’s so easy to get consumed by a particular facet of our lives, be it work or family

How resilient are you?

I would say yes, because I manage to navigate the 4th turning while being present for family and kids, helping parents, and dealing with the endless wave-surfing of being self-employed.

Meanwhile, most of my younger cousins are depressed and on antidepressants, despite having pretty cushy lives.

I don't, and have never, let life's up and downs distract me from my main things like reading, training, and whatever else. 

I think every little challenge we overcome, even small ones, add up to character building.
