Great one, John. I'll comment on your ending to hold it close. "If you don’t consciously take the time to understand what you want out of life, you may find yourself throwing what you want most in the gutter in order to obsess over a game that was never worth playing in the first place." So true and often not known until later that the quiet fabric of your life WAS what you wanted and cherished, though you may not have deeply recognized it at the time. And sometimes, it gets torn from you, not tossed in the gutter.

Yeah, I think too many people don't really think about what they want most until they've let it slip through their fingers
