cowardy custard / stop saying never!

i didn't write the article, or any article. this is probably because this time it would mean that someone else would read it, and their judgement of it would be valid. and i may have had to face up to the fact that i cannot write, and will never be a 'writer'. today i also thought that i can probably never be in education either, as i don't have any clean 'message' to give a student. i'm brimful of questions. this applies to urban regeneration, governance and polity, but also to love, singlehood and lifestyle. i already figured i could never make it in acting last year. so it looks like the field of possibilities is getting narrower and narrower.
and i'm sure they all expect me to have a 'life' by the time i'm thirty. clock ticking....
