You can't always have what you want.
But if you try sometimes.
You get what you need.
Balancing life's priorities with life's desires are two different fish.
It's like comparing a brook trout to a tuna.
We do what we need to do in order to get what we want to do.
The responsible adult struggles with this compromise.
We live a life of desires, through a life of necessity.
Compromising individuals find happiness in life's little treasures. Those who will not compromise live a life of misery and bliss. Life's little treasures are found in life's style. And you can't have lifestyle without style.
There is no middle ground. The smart choice is compromise.
But there's a cost to compromise. It cannot be measured through inaction.
The drug of desire pushes the unsettled into action.
The smoke of need hides our true intentions.
What do you want to be when you grow up?
I don't know. I'll tell you when I grow up.
