Jan 17, 2026, 8:25 AMThere are two people in this world that you need to make proud.
It's not your mom, not your dad, not your partner, not even your children.
One is the 8-year-old you: the child who dreamed.
The second is the 80-year-old you: the elder who remembers.
Make them happy.
Make them proud.
That's all.
Jan 17, 2026, 9:01 AMOf course I live in the "Here & Now". But I never forgot the dreams of that young child who saw the world with shiny eyes and dreamed of so much beauty.
But I also don't want to look back and regret all the things that I haven't done in my life.

Instantly gave you the star.
Read about the concerns regarding 8yo-me.
Turned mind towards 80yo-me.
Doubled concerns.
…
Decided to stick to current-me's values and goals.
