Life in Reverse
Sitting in a rocking chair reading a book in your own retirement home, having your wife sit across from you doing the same exact thing. Flying the plan backwards from all the places you went after you retired, and you start to just think that traveling is a dream that may never become a reality. You go back to your job, and you start making money again. The next 10 years you are sitting behind a computer doing your job because you wanted to be an engineer after college. An internship for your summer job between your college years. Ending freshmen year in college starting to have an idea for what career is going away because you're starting to lose knowledge you acquired from that year in college. Now graduation comes for high school, and you are feeling free and ready for college not knowing the hours that are going to have to be put in. Half way through senior year, getting letters from colleges that you applied for and getting a yes or no on the acceptance letters. Having seniorites and not wanting to put any work in for school, but now senior year is starting and you realize that you have one year left and want to go out with a strong GPA to get into a good college. Junior year rolls around and you're just finishing the hardest school year yet because you are challenging yourself with the classes you take. The next few years you go through sophomore then freshmen year of high school, and you go back to middle school. Starting to realize how hard school is getting and having to put effort in it to get good grades. Heading back to elementary school, not caring about anything besides recess in school and snack time. Becoming younger and younger each day, having to rely more and more on your parents again. Now being pushing around in the stroller everywhere, laying on your mom and dads laps, crying all the time again, and now back to being one day old just being brought into this world.
