Many of us had it figured out as adolescents, just hop on a bike and go, its later in life where we get sold a bill of goods and lose our way.
Life is a little more complicated as an adult with many responsibilities. Some of us are expected to show up at work on time, ready to work, not smelling like a sewer rat, and then go home to a family, not get hit by a car on the way, etc. If only life was so simple as when I was a kid.
