I have always done what I enjoyed to do most.
My Parents also brought me up with good sound work ethics and a stable way of thinking.
My Dad would say, It doesn't matter what you do in life, long as what you do makes you happy, and son, whatever you choose to do...be the best you can be at it, and you will always hold your head high.
My Mom always told me to not chase after a woman. The woman I would be happy in life with, will come to me. She will love me and support me in whatever I choose to be or do in life. So, I need to only be myself, and be happy with my decisions.
But my Dad I think wanted me to be an Engineer.... :lol:
My Mom wanted me to be a Doctor.... :lol:
.......
ops: I wanted to be a Rock Star. :P
I ended up as a Piano Player in a CatHouse for a while...then used those skills to be a Porno King for a Glorious Summer in '74 ...Sausalito, California. :lol: 8)
After that...it's been a downhill slip...but I'm happy. :?
