It’s never too late to start living life the way you want to, other than living it by compulsion of family, society’s dictum and peer pressure. There is a wild streak in everyone.
True Prasanna. its never too late to do or attempt to do most things, also given the convenience and services we have today, whether it is travel to Cherrapunji or China, learn a new language, a new recipe (by the way, I don't like cooking, eh) or make new friends. This is also more rewarding than looking before and after and pining for what is not, as the poet Shelley says. I've enrolled for a course in cancer and palliative care. One part of my mind said 'Why now?' but the other said 'Why not?'
Yes that was a famous knock knock joke among kids.

Born free live free.

Excellent sentiments so succinctly put.
Thank you!
Well written piece as always. The lines on opportunity remind me of an old favourite:
Knock Knock
Who’s there?
Opportunity
Oh- I thought opportunity knocks only once !
