And Good Luck

I won't deny I was always rather good in burning bridges. But - how only natural to go for pastures new!

It is a feat to have the ability to finish something - be it education or a project - but there is definitely a point when you start learning too little. (It would be simply stupid to say stop learning.)

Yesterday I had a conversation with a youngster and I told him he reminded me of my hometown, of the simplicity and innocence - but that that was both good and bad. He shied away and expressed hope he would remain so.

I refused to push it any further, but a frank reply would have been: If so, in five year's time that will be as sure a sign of imbecility as being cross-eyed.
