You know, there is nothing wrong with leading a quiet life and enjoying the little things. Waking up next to your wife every morning, having breakfast together, packing the kids off to school, having an honest job that pays the rent and doesn't induce tortured battles in the darkest chambers of your soul every day. You <i>are</i> the embodiment of mission and purpose parent was talking about, but make no mistake, that does <i>not</i> mean mission and purpose is in any way more honorable than peace and quiet. Live and let live.
