I’M ALMOST SEVENTY AND I’M TIRED

I am tired and will soon have a nap. I don’t know what we’re having for supper. I can have cereal or even a peanut butter sandwich. It’s freezing here. I am so glad it’s our last weekend.
Anyhow I’m seventy and I’m tired!
Tired of hearing how people need to, should, have to loose weight.
Tired of all the prejudice in the world.
Tired of the killings in the name of religion.
Tired of wars and our youth dying.
Tired of the way we treat old people.
Tired of the way very sick and elderly are kept alive when they would be happier dead.
Tired of the media selling us diets and other crap we don’t need or want.
Tired of having obligations of all kinds.
Tired of listening to people complain.
Tired of listening to people’s complaints.
Tired of doing what I should.
Tired of women who need to have their hair done, the right shoes and clothes.
Tired of knowing our children are being brought up by strangers.
Tired of governments who SCREW us and screw up the world.
Tired of people who are jealous of what we have.
Tired of other people’s expectations of me.

I AM JUST PLAIN TIRED! I EXPLAINED IT ALL TO HUBBY THIS AFTERNOON. I THINK HE UNDERSTANDS AND FEELS THE SAME WAY. WE JUST WANT TO HAVE PEACE. PEACE OF MIND. WE ARE SELFISH. WE WANT TO DO WHAT WE WANT TO DO. WE DON’T CARE ABOUT YOU. LEAVE US ALONE. I KNOW THIS IS A SHOCK AND MAYBE, JUST MAYBE WHEN YOU’LL BE 70 YOU’LL FEEL THE SAME WAY.

I’m 23 and I’m tired too ahaha.

Did you get your van? What color is it? Re: This and your previous entry. I’m tired of just about the same things you are, and I’m not 70. I’m only 49!

Just a randome noter and only 31 but I agree with just about everything you say here. I hope you don’t mind but this struck such a chord with me that I nominated for reader’s choice.

During the holocaust it was the tired people who gave up first. Find out a way to not be tired and join the rest of us survivors. Sleep, get good rest, when you hear things that you don’t like that are not relevant to life or love or spirituality then perhaps take another nap. . Tired is only temporary, you’ll gain your strength back . I’m not 70 yet but 70 is no different than 50 or 20 or 10, we just all have our different things that make us tired. There are childen who grew up feeling like they were 100 . And so, if you were not included in that group, you have something to be thankful for that you reached old age IN your old age. lol, Smiles , peace and have a great night/day.

I am 31 and I totally get what you are saying!

But for every crappy thing that makes you tired, there should be a few things that make you smile! 🙂
