"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."
