@@denisemilfort4581it's not your fault that modern technology has made it more challenging to carve a niche that is profitable and rewarding... outside of being devoted to creating _content_ for social media which actually cause time vacuums for anyone who _watches_ it rather than creating their own futures.

I love this idea od allowing your destiny to find you and being open to the radical shifts from where you thought you were headed to new, unexpected pathways 😊
yesterday while hiking up in Stratcona Park, we came across a young man working for the park. We started small chit chat and he said " dont I know you" -well, it eneded up he was in the psychology 12 class I talked too a few years --back.As-- soon as he realized who I was he gets this big grin-and im sure if it wasnt fo covid- we would have given each other a hug. he talked to me about chalenges with gettig the right courses he wanted- he is in his 3rd year, challenegs of life etc. I had just come across this video a week or so before. So Iet this young man know about it, and told him some things Wade had said, and some of the things i leared in life. He was going to go home and try to find this video- unfortuanaley I couldt remember the name of it. But I know he will find it, and it will help him. Thank you for this.
Wade! I love you like so many. You have taught me life so many lessons, though the years. You lead me to be the captain. I have followed you since my teens. I have woven a colorful tapestry that I love and am proud of. Thank you for your years of story telling, global vision and .. all those things that make us ourselves. Xo
24:32 - gimme a BREAK! What he wants to say to _young_ people? What about us 50 somethings who applied that very philosophy to our lives, are vastly knowledgable creative and _gifted_ and are considered to be _nobodies_ by the world? Not that I regret the way that I've engaged with _life_ ... I wouldn't trade it for all the success in the world.... but acting like anybody who embraces a laissez-faire approach to life is gonna find recognition and economic security is delusional!
I am 76 and entering into the 4th (final) year of a BFA degree. Planning on grad school. As Wade confirms - time is not linear.
This is good for people of all ages - even at 59, I'm not sure what I want to be when I grow up.
Your comment actually makes me feel sad and hopeless, I’m not saying it in any way to be mean I just don’t want to wait any longer to figure it out.

Ah... he was quoting directly from Terrence Mckenna there but didn't mention it. Around 7 minutes in.
