Oh yeah for sure! Life teaches us lessons all the time if we are prepared to see them!
I know what you mean with the off-road vehicle. I had a nice 4x4 truck that I took to some places off the beaten path and it was great. I sold the truck and got a chance to try something but I couldn't because all I had was a car, it was lame haha.
You know there's plenty of niches here and you just have to find your own or even create it. I created the rant community years ago and it's a thriving group of awesome people now. I created it on a whim and it's a really fun place to be now, so you can try to find yours or just create it and maintain it with consistency!
Thank you kindly for providing this additional insight into how you resolved the challenge of finding your niche, @cmplxty. Building your own is certainly a great answer! 🫡🤝
I seriously doubt I could find the time and motivation to even attempt it. So, hats off to you for what you have done. I think your post here references an important part of what I need to be more clearly settled on, in my case.
Simply that the investment of time in expressing ourselves has some benefits. While I had some idea of that starting out, my own thoughts were combined with that effort leading to interaction with others. An obvious thought I did NOT have at the time was whether or not it would ever even be read.
I am still working through what this realistically means for my own choices in what steps I can make sense of and then justify taking.
