People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made.

After having made several mistakes painting, I decided to call it quits after I used the wrong paint. I am not a painter, probably never will be, and not particularly unhappy about that TBTH. I hate making mistakes on the job, but I can avoid painting jobs in the future.

I also hate having to take jobs that I have little experience in. This economy freaking sucks...
