I'm sure there will be many of us who could use the extra assistance. I just wondered if there was anything that called to you specifically. Helping others is all well and good, but I don't think there's anything wrong with chasing something one wants for themselves.

not really, not yet
mostly all i want is to keep living
and to not lose contact with everyone when we all split up
sometimes it feels like there's as many choices as there are stars in the sky, and it's intimidating to think of picking just one
enough that i can't choose just yet

[Ah, something she can relate to deeply. Goodbyes are ridiculously hard and she thinks about that often. Nepione is probably not handling that very real possibility the best way she can.]

Who says you only have to pick one? There's no rule to follow there. If we only ever limited ourselves to one thing, one path, how dull things would be.

true
the problem then is where to go and start
there's many many wonderful places to begin

That's not really so much a problem as it is a blessing. It means you can start anywhere you choose. So I think you should pursue where your heart beckons you to.

[That is the most ridiculously Nepione thing she could weigh in with.]

i'll let you know when i figure out where it's beckoning
might even be in a direction we don't see yet
some flash of inspiration that we'll stumble across on the road

Exactly. I'm finding it difficult to plan too much for the future because of how different things can be every day. I think there's some value in really seizing the day and the feelings we've experiencing that day. Maybe that's the great thing about experiencing life.
