it doesn't come up on Google street maps

Had some very intresting conversations with a long-time friend last night. It was perfect timing since I have had the same circular ruminations in my head for months (maybe a couple of years?) without any glimpse of a decision being made. I can't figure out how to stay happy. And, what's even more perplexing is that I still don't know what I want to do with my life. As in, that "thing" that defines me. I have always envied people who are definable by their passion - you know the ones, they live for their passion, they eat-sleep-breathe for one purpose. But, can I even be like that?
I have always kept myself very compartmentalised; the different versions of "me" literally live in different worlds. Sometimes I imagine a room full of people at my funeral, each one wondering if they are at the wrong service because the things being said don't sound like me at all.
In other news, I am officially done with diapers! After 5 years of changing them, both kids are fully potty trained. Strangely enough, it hasn't been a huge milestone. This thing that I did every day, multiple times a day, for over 5 years suddenly vanished and it barely registered for me. Just goes to show that things aren't always as important as they seem.
