Dan's post reminded me of that movie "Pay it Forward." Such a great film with such a positive message...even though it's a tear-jerker.

I am a big believer that the best way I can make a difference in the world is through my family and children. I don't have to be rich nor famous for that.

What are these things that you can no longer accomplish?
Be famous by the time you are 30. Seriously tho, the "things" I am talking about are stuff like what am I going to do by a certain age. Before I am married I would like to go sky-diving. I never did it. Sure, I can do it now, but it is not worth the risk. I would love to travel the world by myself. I did that to a small degree, but now I choose to think about family first. Every choice you make, no matter how good, closes as many doors as it opens.

I have never wanted to be famous. But with all my heart, I yearn to make a difference for the better.

Alexa, much worse than that, actually. to choose one thing is to reject almost everything else.

Exactly. As you get older, you have made more choices, so you have excluded more opportunities. You start to see people more young then you who have been very succesful--growls at Frankie Munez.

Had to add this example of an older unknown&untrained soon likely to become famous&rich for inventing a handcream that kills antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
