“There’s a widespread notion that children are open, that the truth about their inner selves just seeps out of them. That’s all wrong. No one is more covert than a child, and no one has greater cause to be that way. It’s a response to a world that’s always using a tin-opener on them to see what they are on the inside, just in case it ought to be replaced with a more useful type of tinned foodstuff."

Is your life turning out the way you expected it to? Are you making it safely through the turns and the twists, the let-downs and the disappointments? Today S shared about his past five years studying culinary arts in TP. He said that when he started out, he thought that it would just be something to pass his years in school, but over time, he understood that it had become more than that. It had turned into a lifelong passion, an important element of who he was, and he could not imagine it not being part of his life. And it made me wonder - how many of us are fortunate enough to find something that we care so deeply about? And are we as intensely passionate about the things that we are doing now, in this stage of our lives?
I hope we are, because that's the best way to roll.
