35

In May 2020 I will turn 35. I've been thinking about it a lot lately. By next year I would have spent exactly half of my allotted time on earth. When I look back at what I've used the first half to do, honestly I am underwhelmed. So what will the second half look like? What will be my focus, the driving force of my life? What will I pour my time and energy to achieve? How do I want to live, and die? These are the things that occupy my mind now.

I've rediscovered my passion for fixing things and hardware. I started life that way, messing with electronics. I also want to learn design more, be good at it. I want to get back to playing my guitar and making music. At the back of my mind there's this desire to teach some kind of class, just teach people what little I know in the subjects that interest me. We'll see how that pans out.

I don't have it all figured out but the little pieces are coming together. There really is not much time left. It could all end at any moment. Every breath draws us closer to the grave. I just want to make my life count for something.

-ONWARD!
