Huh It does't feel like a job!

Do people really get paid to make threads on some forums? That's news to me. I mean imagine if making threads was a paid job.
I'm glad AI doesn't do it.

What silly threads would AI make? Feed it a bunch of trivia, and it spits out a new thread question/topic every day? Going through the Bible, one verse at a time?

Or the age old -- by faith or by works??? (In hundreds of different variations)

Hey everyone,

(I honestly didn't know how many threads I'd written on CC until someone pointed it out to me in another thread, so today I was thinking, Might as well pass that milestone! :))

I had a conversation with a friend I grew with about the various milestones we look forward to in our lives. I don't know if it seems like this to anyone else, but when my friend and I were young, it seemed like there was a constant stream of milestones to pass: moving on to high school (we went to the same Christian school K-8th grade), turning 13, getting our license, first car, turning 18, graduating high school, turning 21, graduating college, living independently, getting our first full-time jobs, first house or apartment...

What happens after you grow up and all the "major" milestones (at least here in the USA) have been passed? My friend now looks forward to her kids' milestones as way of constantly setting goals and having something to look forward to.

Me? Because I don't have a family of my own and the possibility of marriage feels like "something somewhere out in the great beyond", I often wonder if my only milestone left... is applying for Medicare and social security!!!

What are some major milestones that you've met or passed in your life? Did you feel overwhelmed, excited, or were you just glad they were over? And now that you may be older, what milestones are you looking forward to (or maybe even not looking forward to) next?

initiating my own landscape, merchandise & coin business, playing in bands, vacationing to st. thomas alone for 2 weeks, skydiving, individual goals in antique buying, purchasing houses, completing risky jobs, swimming miles out in the ocean, mountain climbing, jump ping off 3 story buildings, & a few others. my feeling was joy & excitement. no big goals now but many summer trips are planned & hawaii is our destination this coming winter.

I’m sure by now you’ve made more than 400 posts hehe. I am happy to be part of your 400th post . ♥️

Speaking of milestones, I got married in my 40s, which i didnt expect would happen to me 😅and the next one hopefully not too soon 😅 will be turning 50. Hopefully I can do a lot of travelling after 50 😇That feels like a big milestone for me, and I’m truly grateful to God. But simply waking up every day, alive and healthy is already a blessing and a milestone for me.

Everyday is worth remembering the good days and even the not so good ones. I changed, I learned and I grow through all of them
