All of us. I'm already looking backward. Willingness, not need. I never thought of it that way, but perhaps, yes. It's unshakable in me.
People love a second act.
And a third and fourth. I always thought that Fitzgerald quote about Americans having no second acts was hooey. It's too overwhelming an experience, and utterly unfakeable. It constricts, but it also liberates, and the liberation is far more often than not a far better trade. I've never even thought of that until you asked itno.
