re: What's a life lesson you wish to pass on?

Watch a sunrise/sunset in its entirety once a month.

Too many people wait until old age to appreciate the world around them.

Most spend their 20s scrambling for money or a position, by the time they have both, they have no idea what happiness is.

I wasted my early 20s soul searching, which was financially stupid, but it taught me patience beyond that of my peers. My mid to late 20s was spent finding a wife, an actual partner. Now, as I'm finishing them out, I'm financially behind my friends, but with them all considering divorce or popping out kids, I'm gaining ground quite rapidly.

There are times I wish I wouldn't have wasted so much time/money/self respect before meeting my wife, but that was the only way we would ever have ended up at the same location at just the right time.

Twice a month, we take a drive to nowhere, it helps us to remember what we're working toward.
