An old friend of mine, Kevin Yockey, and I were chatting about life, jobs and responsibility. He mused that I hadn’t become a game programmer like we once thought. Instead, I became a web developer. Sometimes I feel the weight of responsibility as an income-earner, and realize it was probably for the better that I travelled this path. Kevin’s wisdom (increasing with the years) shone through with his next remark:

It’s a lot easier when you’re in school and don’t have to worry about making money. But if you can make it doing something you enjoy then you’ve found the perfect line between responsibility and childhood.

Isn’t that the case?
