Murphy, you're young, we'll chalk this up to youthful exuberence. As kids we are fed the "you can do anything" line, but the truth is, you cannot do everything and as soon as you chose one thing you eliminate a hundred others.

For instance, if you choose to get married, you won't be a surf bum.
If you get a job you won't be hitch hiking around the world.
If you have children you won't be climbing Mt Everest.
If you choose to live in north America, you will not be a gaucho in Argentina.
So frankly eliminating some of them off the top isn't really such a loss as it may seem.
Happy trails whatever your choices.
