I had submitted my life-force to expectation so long that I didn't know what else I could do.
I'm only just now figuring out what this one is like. I'd been inside it so long I couldn't see it.
I still haven't quite figured out what to *do* when I'm not just doing what's expected. It's hard.
I like systems. Complexity makes things interesting. I eventually moved from engineering to psychology because humans are more complex than anything, and therefore even *more* interesting. But it was really just another variation on the expectations.
"What do you want to be when you grow up?" has always been the most baffling of all possible questions.
