What makes life worth living?

[Randy F]

Decide what you really like to do and do it the rest of your life. Do not be hindered by others, by distance or distance from family, or expense or what people say. If it is what you really want to do then do it. An example is, I wanted to be a musician, I wanted to make my living as a musician, I loved playing guitars and pianos but my parents drilled into my head that it was good for weekends etc but not anything that I could ever make a living at. They smothered my desire to succeed and I went to work, college the whole time wanting to play. I played during my off time and when I could. I had offers, professional offers but I was then stuck waiting for retirement. Well now I'm retired and I'm doing what I always wanted to do but I am much older than I want to be. I should have done what I wanted to do from the start and told them to go to hell.
