Interesting reflections on life last year from Armin Ronacher.

I love “dare to commit”:

Life isn’t about sampling everything; it’s about making deliberate choices and committing to the ones that matter. You don’t need to date twenty people to find the right partner, nor do you need a network of hundred acquaintances to succeed. Similarly, you don’t need to work at ten different companies to build a meaningful career.

And on children:

You grow above yourself when all the sudden become fully responsible for another human being and you can’t opt out of it. It also invites you to reflect on yourself more and how you came to be the person that you are. I also don’t think it makes you any less ambitious, but it changes how you define success for yourself.

And his final note:

Whatever your journey may look like, I hope you find joy, purpose, and the courage to commit fully to it
