“There are more old drunks than there are old doctors so I guess we’d better have another round”
— Willie Nelson
Simplified Meaning:
If you look around, you'll notice that there are more elderly people who have spent their lives drinking than there are elderly doctors who have spent their lives working in medicine. This might suggest that enjoying life and relaxing could be just as important, if not more, than always focusing on work and health. For example, think about someone who works nonstop, worrying about every little thing to stay healthy, versus someone who also takes time to enjoy drinks with friends. The second person might actually end up living longer and happier. This advice suggests finding a balance; it's okay to let loose and have fun sometimes instead of always stressing about being perfect. So, in real life, try to enjoy moments and experiences without overthinking their consequences too much.
