I find this to be one of the best articles you've written so far, comprehensively anyways. I've passed it on to a bunch of people because it's very easy to identify with, at least in my 'circle of friends.'

It's also helped me lighten up a bit in terms of purpose and such, realizing that I shouldn't care so much what other people think as long as I'm working towards helping others and being happy. (re: career & relationship choices as well as free time choices)

It made me take up skateboarding again, and I realized how great of exercise it is too! I know it doesn't seem like a life sport, but if I don't push myself to outrageous limits I'm sure it can be!

What limits do you see? Please enlighten me so I don't get a headache trying to think about limitations!
