Nice article, you made me recover my password to reply to this post :) My dad, crazy as he is, told me that my younger years were the best of my life, mainly because of the little concerns you have. I always remembered that and enjoyed my years in school. But still, it seems harder to "stop and smell the roses". In my case it's because I can almost touch the things I want which will enrich my life. This makes me focus on the future and makes me want to fast forward life. It seems riduculous to want time to fly by. You always want to have more, develop more. In these times it seems that there are so many possibilities to grow that you cant stop for a while and blossom. I think its just the circle of life. When I look back at my life, there are very precious memories I cherish, but there are also dreams i pursue. The main thing to hold on to is balance, I think. There must be a time to mess everything up, look for a different road, and time for structure and responsibility. I always think that when you're not taking the right path you will find out eventually. Something will start to frustrate and at a certain point you have to take action to change it. It maybe a cliche, but only if you cannot grasp it, listen to your heart, and it will lead you to where you need to be. So, if you feel like playing runescape for hours at a time, just do it. At some point you'll realize want you really want to do. Nothing is a waste of time, just life. I really like the article, it was well put together, thanks for sharing your thoughts. Greets, T
