Strangers become family.
I followed my dad around the world and I wouldn’t trade that for a boring life in one place. I’ve met strangers from around the world.
Sure, I’ve become weird and different than the average person. But I feel that my life is much richer and more interesting.
Go to school, get married to your sweetheart, work hard, buy a house, start a family…. That’s boring, uninspiring stuff that’s been repeated billions of times already.
There has to be more to human existence, IMHO.[/quote]

Sorry you have such a wierd and different life. Strangers can become friends but never family. They dont drop everything in their lives to save yours 3 times like I did for my mother. They dont drop everything in lives to help you care for your premature infant when you are a clueless 1st time father while your wife is in the hospital for 2 weeks struggling to survive like my sister (who I dont even get along with all that well) did for me.
While I have done the “Go to school, get married to your sweetheart, work hard, buy a house, start a family….” routine my life has hardly been boring or uninspirational. Sorry that you havent figured that out.
