Our Lives Are Not Written in Stone

Eventually, we’ve just lived so long it feels like they are.

A 90-year-old can pick up the trumpet. A 50-year-old can start a company. A 20-year-old can advise one.

It’s never too late to try something new. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Not your friends. Not your parents. Not even your habits or society at large.

Resist.

There are no rules. You can do anything. Don’t forget.
