Your reply has truly touched my innermost heart,...and again re-confirm the forever-important lesson in life: "there's *NEVER* too late in Life. it's just how you look at it, and what you DO about it!" I am 28 yrs old, and honestly, even though still quite 'young', have gone a major series of depressions, mostly because of the parents' expectations & society's notions (ie: especially Chinese society) of how at such age, I am *supposed* to already be SUCCESFUL at several things, ie: have stable job with great big $$$ income, got married, have kids, etc etc" ,...while here I am, with my inborn "dreamy imaginative wanderer" mind, that keeps thinking about doing & pursing a less-than-travelled-path of being a Musician. 'mainstream society' around me kept telling me of how I'm already "too OLD" for "playing around" with music,....and THAT seriously is hurting me, & very detrimental in causing me those years of depressions (even still sometimes now!). But reading story like yours (& also Celes' excellent article on this!)..I've realized that EVEN if I have to take that 'less-than-travelled' path, or EVEN if it'll take such a LOOONG time, or very difficult to realize it,......eventually, it all doesn't really matter,...'cuz I know *THAT* is what I want to do in Life! sort of like my "Purpose" when i'm still breathing on this planet Earth. ....by denying this, and letting even those many people to take 'it' away from me,..I'll probably experience what you've experienced,..and I'll become a "living zombie" ....and I'd rather be physically dead rather than being a living zombie! once again, thank you for sharing ur personal story...it is really touching & inspiring me! :) I am glad that I’ve accidentally come again to this page, and read your reply.

Thanks for sharing your experience with us and look forward to connecting with you more here :D Hi Anastasiya, I think the most beautiful thing about life is there are all these things out there for us to do, like an unlimited menu, and it’s up to us to select and choose what we want to, including the permutations and combinations we conjure up.

I know that I had to try a lot of things in life before I finally found my purpose. Some things worked out for me, some things didn't but I am glad that I have tried all of them. I think that sometimes the difficult part might be to choose just one thing out of 2, 5, 10 ... I had a few interests that I absolutely loved and that made me happy and following one would have meant forgetting about the other ones. It took some time for me to set priorities and figure out which goal will make me happy for the longest period of time. I have also managed to combine a few of my interests and now I am absolutely happy living my life. Celes, this is a very helpful article.

I love how you are vivaciously living life even as a mom with a child, whereas others in your shoes probably will bind themselves down with mental restrictions. You're triggering my interest to pursue new hobbies right now in fact :D Possibly pottery, skating, and reacquainting myself with frisbee. I'm thinking of going back to study in the (distant) future, though it's just a random thought for now.
