Reminder that just because you don’t have children, doesn’t mean you have to achieve a certain level of career or academia. You’re still valid. I’m still valid…
In fact I strive to do as little as possible. I only work to pay the bills. If I could luck upon a comfortable enough nest egg I would quit working immediately and just play games the rest of my life (video & board, solo and with friends/family).
Hell, I may end up contributing more to society that way since I enjoy dabbling in video game design but don’t have enough time to actually work towards anything I could release. If I had time, maybe I’d actually create something for a wider audience rather than whatever minor contribution I have at work.
I don’t think “valid” is a proper word for someone’s life. You don’t have to be validated by anyone, you don’t own anyone anything. Do what you yourself see fit for this one-time adventure.
I always like to remind people that their ancestors survived as fishermen and farmers and peasants, you aren’t a failure if you don’t become the president or the greatest person in your field or whatever.

I’ve done my part to make the world a better place by not having kids, and I’m just cruising along.

Well, one thing you should do in life is read the text you’ve written and checking for errors.
