Unmarried and Childless

This comes from bl1y and some crazy post about women in law post but towards the bottom I found something that should be a life lesson for everyone.

We aren’t raised thinking we can have it all. We’re raised with the belief that if you bust your ass you might get to have one great thing in your life that makes all the other crap worth while, but there are good odds you won’t even get that and will spend half your time at work and the other half with a glass of scotch contemplating putting your head in the oven and ending it all.

Unless you were blessed with amazing genetics and incredibly wealthy parents, you aren’t going to get to have it all. Pick the thing that matters to you and go get that thing[.]

And one day, I’ll probably learn it myself.
