I’d trade the interesting past for more wealth and stability now.
Memories don’t pay the bills.
But a lot of great stories do get thrown around.
Had an offer at 35 to move to Texas with boss who was moving there to start a new job and offered me one.
I HATE the heat. And what’s worse, I LOVE the autumn and even some winter.
So it’s not just hiding from the heat in an AC.
It’s missing my favorite season.
That being said, YES I ####ED UP by not going.
I feel like Willie Loman :)
Only things I really miss about Kali is some of the people (my people), the weather, and Rubio’s fish tacos.
A man’s priorities are his own and yours and mine are the same regarding the interesting stories compared to current situations. If you are happy with where you are living, can do things for fun instead of just paying bills, and are close to your people, it sounds like you made a decent choice and did not F it up, really.
Ehhh, gotta wait until the final act and the opinion of the only critic that matters to discover if you pulled off “Tragic Hero” during your time on the stage, buddy. Me, I’m going for Feste — “This fellow is wise enough to play the fool”
