40+ and what’s next.
So you are 40+, you have your advantages and disadvantages. You are still young, in life full bloom but life is boring you, and you act like an old jaded dame. Because everything is so repetitive. You only drink, eat, sleep, go to work, and every day the same. Yes, there are cool moments too, but there are so few that on the fingers of both hands, you could count them all. Most of life, however, still looks the same.
In this article, you’ll learn about the pluses and minuses of each type of soul.
If this is the case, why exactly did you come into this world? Why do you have to work constantly? Who says you have to do a career? Make money if you still don’t have enough. And then spend it on some things that you still have too much and too much.
Wait, wait. You can’t even see that you have too many! You still want more. It is only when moving from one apartment to another, of course, larger and larger, that you see the real size of your consumption. You feel it physically while carrying the sackcloth of clothes, shoes, and bags on your own back. Only when you strain your arm and can’t move it for a few days, you will think that maybe you overdo it a bit…
Free as a bird.
In the moment of weakness, you will give away your treasures with a heavy heart – because you need everything and everything will be useful. A little bit to the charity shop, a little bit to a friend who gives old clothes a second life, and a little bit to everyone else who is around. After that, you feel lighter, fresher, and free as a bird. You would happily take off in the air. Such a nothing, and so much joy it brings. Hmmm, weird.
Week or month of enjoying the lightness of being, after which the action begins again. The more you settle into a new place, the more things arrive. You jump into old modes like the hamster into the carousel. If getting rid of all these things brings you such lightness, then why do you break your neck to get more of that burden again?
Don’t you feel that something stinks here?
In Malaysia, they have a problem with the indigenous people of this country because they can’t learn the work ethos. They go to work to earn money for their survival, food, and fees. When they meet their basic needs, they don’t show up at work anymore. Until they will need money for their livelihood again. They can’t understand why they have to work in advance. For some abstract just in case. Because of this the other influx of residents, call them lazy and fools and try to teach them different behavior. They have a similar problem in Australia with Aborigines and in South Africa with the indigenous people of the continent. And you at your request, fund yourself stress, loans, problems with the garbage disposal, etc. Who is a fool here?
Every morning coffee, breakfast, and to the job. You work, you pretend that this work is so interesting, and even there are moments that you believe that it has more sense than acquiring your account with numbers. The more numbers, the greater your commitment. And you do not even notice that you do not have time for anything else, because the day somehow does not want to stretch. Sometimes you have hiccups, right, but why would you care about it? There is a weekend, a few dinners in the city, good wine, and some entertainment, and you will buy something nice, and soon you will be fine.
Is this how it should look like? Another 40 years? Somehow it’s hard for you to believe it. There must be more sense in all this, after all.
Well, you already know that it’s the soul, it’s about it. You already know that you must listen to it. You even try to hear it somehow. Some yoga classes, a philosophical book, a concert, and even a joint from time to time. You have a foretaste. You licked something. Even if you know what it tastes like, you want more, just how to make it last forever and not just temporary? You even know that you need it because you are almost at the top of Maslow’s Pyramid. You also know that it is immortal and it must develop. And this is not the first time you are looking for contact with it, because you have done it many times. And as a shaman, as the wife of the official Julius Caesar, and again as a Medieval knight in Western Europe. Moreover, you even know that you are an old ass, of the type of priest.
Just what about this priesthood? You have this knowledge about yourself, but what’s next?
The advantages and disadvantages of your soul you should be familiar with.

Another interesting thing you should know is that 6 of these types create couples that have similar specializations in life.
Priests and servers are specialists in inspiring those who care for the well-being of others, serving a greater good, and seeking to improve the quality of life for all.
Sages and artisans are experts in expression, dealing with putting ideas into practice, and giving form or voice to their inner thoughts and feelings, thus changing the way they perceive others.
Kings and warriors are specialists in the field of transforming practical goals into reality.
Scholars as a natural role do not have a pair, they are assimilation specialists, absorbing knowledge from life.
So you are a priest, or rather a priestess, an inspiration specialist with a tendency to fanaticism…
Such a 40-year-old Hitler-visionaries. All of yourself! Nothing more, nothing less. The next 40 years will seem interesting.
