Literature / Re: Robinson Crusoe: Who Else Remembers This Novel? Indomie Generation Stay Off. by MLEatMidlife: 4:37pm On Feb 23, 2023

Yes, you are right. As one is growing older distractions are bound to set in. I am currently serving as NYSC Corp member in Gokana local government, Rivers State. And I can tell you that midlife crisis, anxieties and other things have drastically reduce my reading schedule.

Ngugi Wa Thiongo is one of the best writer out of Africa, my library have his books:

Weep Not Child
I will marry when I want
Petals of blood
Devil on the Cross
Grain of wheat
A minute glory
And other ones I can't remember the titles for now.

I have Angels and Demon

I have books from classical Greek writers and Roman writers, Elizabethan writers and old African writers to contemporary writers. It's good to be well informed.

I can relate but I think you can choose to have a different midlife. I think midlife is another opportunity to find yourself, to curate yourself, to become authentic with your needs and wants, to fulfil your own dreams, to become childlike again in your creative mind and dream far and wide. It is an opportunity to go out and play, and start living your authentic life.

Midlife crisis makes people do a lot of shit. Don't blame the woman much, she probably was trying to feel alive, feel sexy, feel seen...just like all of us

Very true. I think this is because people are not prepared for the realities of midlife.

Romance / Re: Are You Experiencing Anxiety In Your Adulthood by MLEatMidlife: 6:08pm On Feb 22, 2023
I believe many people experience feelings of anxiety the most when they get to midlife. This could be for different reasons: children leaving home, career changes, grey hairs, desire to leave a lasting legacy and the reality of limited time, etc.

Midlife has become so associated with crisis that people are anxious about this stage. I believe though that midlife can be more than crisis, it can be a graceful transition to an adventurous stage of life with a rainbow experience of encounters.
