      Same, although I had thoughts in that direction at that age but I couldn’t categorize them.

    Probably that I got charged by a deer in the middle of fucking nowhere on the tail end of a solo 150 mile gravel bike ride, Macguyvered that thing and rode home. That actually surprises me lol

    I wasn’t an athletic or tough kid by any stretch (smallest kid in class and asthma to top it off) so he’d probably get a kick out of me running ultras, biking through mud 150 miles at a time, ditching the car and running to work

        I actually landed on the deer and it got up without kicking me, but in my thoroughly concussed state I thought the best course of action was to just make some huge stream of thought facebook post and basically narrate my ordeal lol

        But yeah I had a rottweiler-sized bruise on the left side of my body, shit was gnarly. It was a long ass night

    I mean thats like what. fourth or fifth grade. I can’t even relate to who that was. flashes of memory at best. got a little more coherent ones from junior high but even high school and college are a blur.

    That I never did Something Great™ with my life.

    Didn’t become a rock star, didn’t cure cancer, didn’t invent a world changing technology, didn’t become a famous artist, etc.

    I didn’t know specifically what I was aiming to do, but for some reason I assumed that i would do something that made a big impact on the world. I was totally convinced of it. And it’s not because my parents constantly told me that or anything. The closest i heard was a lot of “you have so much potential if you’d only apply yourself!” Ugh.

        Maybe at your age. At my age almost all of the Something Great bells have rung. Don’t get me wrong, there are still plenty of very meaningful things i can accomplish, and many important impacts i can make on individual people’s lives, - but for me the possibility of doing something that has a broader impact on society is pretty much gone. But so what, the impact i can have on individual people’s lives is still very valuable, and my own subjective experience of life is just as important as anyone else’s! So i try to make my own experience of living as good as it can be!

        That’s exactly what i was trying to say. I don’t have the chance to make an impact on society at large, but i absolutely do make a very significant impact on the individual people in my personal circle, and that’s extremely valuable.

    That I’m an atheist, probably. Living on the opposite side of the world is a close second.
