To go to sleep and not wake up?
Why Life, with all it’s up’s and downs?
Imagine never having to deal with those negative aspects of life.
No more worry, stress, money issues, no nothing.
I sometimes do. What really is the purpose of working to live?
We work 40/50 years, then retire with the hope of doing all those things, or at least some of things that work stopped us from doing.

I have never thought that because very out going and though not a rocket scientist I have been able to help people in my walk through life but yes I would have liked to have made a real difference .
I’m not an educated man but have made a difference but nothing like I wanted to . I wanted to become a Politician only to help people but that did not pan out , lol .
It is normal for people especially men to get to a certain age and ask themselves what you are asking because we would have liked to have made a BIG impact for the greater good instead of smaller things here and there so we might ask ourselves " Is this it ? " .
Decades ago I was asked by a politician I knew personally - “Why don’t you run for a political position, you are well spoken and knowledgeable, I am sure plenty of people would vote for you”?
My response was - “No disrespect to you, I find a large proportion of politicians hypocritical and self serving.
One must follow the party line the majority of the time or be ostracised by the party. Run as an independent? Not much hope of making any real change.”
Do you sometimes think that it would not matter if you were to suddenly stop living?
My wife would miss me. Other than that, the world would go on pretty much as it is. So, yeah, it wouldn’t matter much.
