I barely made it through this article. After the 10th minute of pushing through my tears to read, I had to resolve that nothing would stop me.

On HN we dream big. And we all agree that we can dream big and maybe hit it big. Imagine what it feels like to realize at a young age that you DONT get to go after your dreams because you are missing the tools. Imagine what it feels like to believe something is wrong with you because you talk to yourself sometimes. Now get back to starting your company.

And yet, you can be happy to commute, to have co workers, to have some freedom from our parents.



I totally agree about the sadness that must accompany realizing you are "missing the tools" to follow your dreams.

A wonderfully written account by his father, one which makes me hope I can be continually thankful for the gifts bestowed upon me going forward.
