You don't need to be skilled in something to get enjoyment out of it

Likewise you don't necessarily get enjoyment out of something just because you're skilled in it.

My entire career is based on "yeah but you're good with computers and programming!" I just wanted to do fine arts and paint for fuck sake. And I could have made a career out of it, as history as since shown! Ah well. Maybe my kids will fare better, we'll see.

Seriously, some people are that good that you know they could do almost anything very well in a matter of days.

So why not ? I always have a lot of respect for someone that is willing to drastically change their lives in order to improve.

Huh, my first thought was that they went to the farm upstate where everyone's pets end up.
