Only this past weekend I, too, was thinking about how the course of my life has been determined as much by muddling through as anything else - but also (and I'd blog about this if I ever got the time) that there have been people in my life who've given me momentum by asking, in the most innocent fashion, "What are you going to do next?" Now I am going to dirty everything by suggesting the possibility of a t-shirt that says "Tom Cruise, J'Accuse". Only because it rhymes, you see. This was a really wonderful post.
