I love this post. I finally got to go to college (just a 2 year degree) but it has been something I tried to do for over 30 years.

Life is not about comparing to other people. Learning this in therapy at 41 years old completely changed the game for me.

I busted my ass for 6 years behind a grill before I got the opportunity to work in my trade. Been in it five months and I love it.

It’s difficult to see it this way when it feels like your country is going to fucking collapse in the next few months.

Miller was 70 when he made Fury Road. You don't have to peak at 25.

Life does not need to be a race against each other, but a series of paths. Sometimes the paths cross, or merge & share; that's when we win

Didn't properly start a career till I was in my 30's. Gotta say life is a tremendous deal easier when you have an average income

That's literally where I'm at the starting point of. Lost my 20s to learning to deal with mental illness to function, now 30 and about 1/

It does so much for your self esteem... You can do it.

It really does. And, thanks, I know. Didn't spend 10 years learning to work with a broken brain to let it win now. :3
