“I think most of us are raised

with preconceived notions

of the choices we’re supposed to make. 

We waste so much time 

making decisions based on someone else’s idea

of our happiness—

what will make you a good citizen

or a good wife or daughter 

or actress. 

Nobody says, ‘Just be happy;

go be a cobbler or

go live with goats.'”

~ Sandra Bullock
