This is what I was made for.

And then and then only do I deserve to be happy and feel like I'm being my authentic self.

And that almost never really happens.

Yeah, she really wanted to make a jump and she was particularly attracted to something radically different because it really wanted to feel different.

And a number of her friends were in the process of going up to the San Juan Islands and jumping into working together and revitalizing an old farm and making it an organic farm.

So maybe I can just go back to the land and have a personal experience and join this commune of organic farmers.

And that's what's really going to work for me.

We don't really know how that all worked out for her, but there's a very similar story.

Another young man I know who was highly successful in technology stopped out and went to try to start an artist commune, actually bought a property in a rural area, brought artists in, like, we're going to have this creative environment.

It's going to be great.

And did that for about two years.

And then that was lovely.

And then realize all it is is radically different.

I don't even really like this.

This isn't that interesting.

At the end of the day, these people are kind of boring because all they want to talk about is this one little narrow view about art.

And what I fell for was the radical shift.

And radical shifts are radical.

But that radicalism doesn't last very long.

And you're still stuck with waking up being you, living in the world.
