WHEN TO CALL IT QUITS

This is a dilemma that many of us face in life and don't know when to call it a day. We have probably reached the zenith in our lives with regards to our dreams, yet we are caught up in a vicious cycle that takes a toll on our bodies. There is one individual in Canada who is qualified with FCCA, ACA, CA, MBA and probably a few more. And yet this person if given an opportunity will resume studying despite the fact that this individual is in the late thirty's and has a ton of money.
Education is not the only perplexing issue we are faced with and don't know when to call it quits. There is the issue of sex. When should a grown individual stop prancing about and settle down to a decent family live with one life's partner? Adultery, fornication and other promiscous behavior by some old, not young folks leaves much to be desired. Porn from the internet and magazines feeds this monster that should have long been laid to rest. Old young folks just don't seem to know when to draw a line and be sober.
Addiction its seems is unquenchable! Whether it is alcohol, drugs, smoking, eating and other bad habits, there seems to be no end in sight as to when to call it quits. The right time is ALWAYS NOW to call it quits for these vices. It takes more than courage and heart to overcome these destructive habits. But you can do it!
Then there is the issue of material possession. One house and one car nowadays seems like an inadequate attainment, and so folks keep laboring to add to that one house and one car, at the expense of their health and family. So when do you call it quits? NEVER. This is what we have been ingrained with. Keep the cycle of greed and the motor running it on all the time. Just accumulate, accumulate and keep on accumulating.
Honestly speaking now when do we call it quits? When our health is at stakes? YES! When our families are at stakes? YES! When you have had enough, go ahead and only then, might be a good time to call it quits.
