Eh, I dunno. I probably don't need to click the clickbait to figure out what's behind the headline, but hey, just cause I actually did grow up under the kinds of expectations only a child prodigy in a police family could ever really know, I actually *did* do a lot of amazing stuff in my life. Hec, I'm reminded just now I was even in a sword fight once, (Texas, go figure) and who can say *that* in this day and age.
I mean, a lot of things do suck, but even some of the pretty stupid stuff was pretty amazing. A lot of it was even amazingly not about trouble.
I guess what's *not* amazing is how stupid and troubled people are being anyway, without even daring anything, never mind doing anything. I think it's very sad that everyone's some kind of 'failure' if we don't happen to be on top of a game that's only 'amazing' in that some people still think that's worthy, never mind defining of the 'best and brightest' in our world. I mean, forget about it.
To be honest, I never expected to survive to the age I am now. But as for what *anyone* has made of this world, I'm distinctly unamazed.
