I've tried passing the idea of living with intent and active choosing the life you want to my brother. I still try to do it myself but society does have a way of challenging our inner turmoil and instilling doubt and regret and negativity in a way that hinders this personal pursuit. It was a good read and a good reminded to pursue a life rather than letting it come to you.
