I often find that having an idea in my head prevents me from doing something else. Working is therefore a way of getting rid of an idea.
So I think that if I do feel more freedom right now in my career, it's not so much because I have less at stake but more a sense that I've learned more.
It is easy to say how we love new friends, and what we think of them, but words can never trace out all the fibers that knit us to the old.
