  • I went to uni right out of highschool. Became a paramedic. Has a good career but it just wasn’t what I wanted. By 25 I quit and was travelling doing odd jobs or whatever I could. Meeting people, seeing places. It wasn’t easy but I wouldn’t change it for the world. I’ve been many places, done many things, met so many interesting people and completely changed my world view from when I was 20 because of it all.

    I say don’t let society tell you what is right or normal. Find your own path. Do things you find interesting and don’t make your life about your work. Now I am old and have medical issues. I’ll be 50 this year. I’m glad I lived while I had the opportunity. It’s your life make it what you want it to be not someone else’s idea of life.

    It takes years to learn to drive well and be comfortable at it. You can read all the books about drivong but until you actually do it you are terrible at it. Even after you start youre still terrrible. It takes time and practice. Cooking is the same. You need practice to build the skills to know what works and what doesn’t. You can’t assume because you read the book you know it all.
