What are YOU?

These days I think that far too much pressure is put on youngsters to study, make the right decisions etc at too tender an age - decisions that will ultimately change their lives in one way or another. What they don't realise is if they feel they made the wrong choice, it's actually not that difficult to take a different path. Where I'm from it's never too late to learn a new skill, for example my mother went back to school at 40 something because she'd always wanted to be a hair stylist but could never afford it until then. I guess what I'm saying is to keep your options open because in this life the possibilities are endless, so don't get caught in the trap of thinking you've failed somehow by not fulfilling your initial goal. Life is change.
