The other day, my friend told me he was doing a master’s degree. I told him I’d left my job and was living a quieter life. He was happy for me. I was happy for him. I thought: I wish I were doing a master’s. He thought: I wish I had a quiet life.

Do You Want to Live My Life?
The other day, my friend told me he was doing a master’s degree. I told him I’d left my job and was living a quieter life. He was happy for me. I was happy for him. I thought: I wish I were doing a master’s. He thought: I wish I had a quiet life.
