Everyone thinks that their lives will go on as planned and they will die at 85... it doesn't work like that, if it's one thing i've learned in life... it's that things never go according to plan, so it's our own personal journey to learn how to find the positive in each day... TODAY... tomorrow will take care of itself, Live your joy today.

That is a wonderful perspective. I have been told it before, of course, but the daily vicissitudes of life really make you lose the big picture, and only focus on stressing on the little picture.
Will I find happiness once I lose my virginity with a woman I find attractive? I better stop stressing about it, find joy today, or at least the pursuit of my joy today, and stop stressing about the past or the future -- the "should have's" and "should's".
Thanks sweatpea!
