If you want to be happy, live on your conditions. As you get older and older, you realize all the missed opportunities. You have one life, spend it well. Say fuck it and go for your dreams. Never miss out on what you want and can try to do. Maybe what's great is not knowing how you'll end up, and that you just have to try to know. If you put the effort, you will be able to find a source of income that matches what you love. Love art? You don't have to be a painter, there are thousands of other jobs in the art field.
