Читать книгу The Secret of Happy Parents: How to Stay in Love as a Couple and True to Yourself - Steve Biddulph - Страница 15

These days no-one really expects, when they die, to rise up above the clouds, queue up at some rhinestone encrusted gates and get a quick resume from a bearded guy in a sheet! But in the second half of life, you do start to ask the big questions, like ‘How did I do?’ It’s a good question, and it gets more urgent over time. In the last hours and seconds of your life, these three questions will be centre stage in your thoughts:

1. Do my children still love me, or even like me?

2. Did my partner (or partners) love me, and do they still?

And lastly, the most important of all,

3. Do I love (or even like) myself?

In the end it will be the answers to these questions that will mean you die in joy, or in desolation. The time to do something about these questions is NOW.
