"i definitely agree that you take on too much and i think that you worry too much about parts of the future that are beyond your control right now. it’s hard to know what your career paths will be when that time comes, but you can do things to make sure that you are ready when those paths are laid in front of you to choose the one that will be best for you and tackle it with the energy and attitude to make it take you where you want to go. i think there’s a lot to be said for focusing on your happiness in the present and making sure that you’re taking good care of thuy. sometimes it’s easier to think about other people’s issues than to face your own (i do that all the time), but at some point, you have to put yourself first."

— An excerpt from an email from my absurdly wise friend Daniel. Good things for me to remember, from time to time.
