At first, the dream was clear: take a safe job that pays well, build a savings account, and spend your money making that great film like your childhood idols. So confident, you convinced your girlfriend about this reality, and before you knew it, you were married with children. But, after all, that safe job wasn't really that safe; expenses began to add up, braces and summer camps aren't that cheap, and suddenly, that fantastic film became a pipe dream. In the end, all that was left were regrets and debt. Not that something was wrong with your life, with a loving family, a place to live, and food on the table, there was nothing to complain about in your life. Yet, something was calling out to you, like the past that wouldn't remain in the past, reminding you of your failure. Call it a mid-life crisis, call it a promise being fulfilled; if you can play it safe and still fail, why not go for it all anyway?
