No, I'm not being ironic. I do think it's a pity when people have dreams and settle for less because you can have regrets from not doing, just as you can have regrets from doing. On the other hand, I think you have to emerge from your comfort zone cautiously and gradually because taking huge risks can end badly. The aim is to get to the point where the pain of your kidney stone (I have just had one) and the smell of coffee are equally interesting to your detached mind. As for my degree of enlightenment, I can tell you that I still prefer the coffee :))
