"When you are in high school, you think you will be happy
"When you
are in high school, you think you will be happy when you
graduate. Once you've graduated, you think you will be happy
once you land a good job. Once you have the dream job, you think
you will be happy when you are married. Next you think you will
be happy when you have kids. Once you have kids, you think you
will be happy when they move out of the house. Next it will be
when they have kids. Before you know it you will have spent your
entire life waiting for events to bring you happiness, just to
realize life (and happiness) has passed you
by."
