Our entire lives are spent preparing.
Prepare for high school.
Prepare to go to college.
Prepare to qualify for a job.
Write your will and prepare to be expelled from earth forever.
And then you're done. That's it.
But why?
I want to go backpacking through a European country with the friends I keep?
At 6 am I want to get on a train and stay on with no destination, but only to speak to passengers.
I want to sleep on the beach and get chased off the next morning because it's illegal.
And how am I meant to find time for that?
I need money and employment and social status to do anything that isn't simplistic.
I need answers. And I need to live.
