Decisions

"The only two things I was passionate about were running and writing. Running was a competitive pastime and a source of deep personal fulfillment but not a lifelong career. Writing, as my mother informed me at the age of six, wasn't much better. 'Nobody makes a living as a writer,' she scolded me sternly when I told her of my ambition to write books." -Martin Dugard in To Be a Runner. Sounds familiar.
