Life Passes You By While You're Making Grand Plans For It

...That quote was from Blow, starring Johnny Depp. Anyway, certain accomplishments don't mean much after a certain age. For example, you getting that car you always wanted from when you were 21 when you're like 27 isn't a big deal. There are plenty of 27 year olds that can get that, because at 27 most people already have a decent job that pays enough to at least finance it. That example was just about a car, trivial stuff, but you get the idea.

Your desires always seem to be juuust out of your reach. When you 're young you want the newest and hottest toys, and nothing really changes except for the "toys". That fisher price car becomes a real BMW, that GT or Haro bicycle becomes the Honda CBR or the Susuki gsxr. Same theme, but the stakes get much higher. Its interesting how the frustrating part is a big part of what makes it fun. Eventually you realize none of that bullshit really mattered, and its like it was all a big game... Which it is.
