Finding My Way
When I was a teen, I had questions I imagine every teen asks: what's the point of life? What should I do with my life?
There were so many interesting options! I am embarrassed of the things that enamored me most: becoming an interior designer, or maybe a model (?—I was enamored with Twiggy), or being an academic and reading all the books in the library, or alternatively, just partying hardily and having a ball.
I also had a list of things I did not think held the answer to life: church, living in a closed community, getting rich.
Somehow, I found my way through it all, and am thankful for the colorful life I have had.
And along the way, I've found at least some answers I could give the teenage me about what matters.
