Ahhh!! I'm so proud of my mom! She has NO fun. She has no hobbies really. She enjoys writing, but she won't ever DO it because she writes thinking that she is supposed to finish something, to show to other people, and she thinks it's not good enough to do that. It doesn't MATTER. If you enjoy something you should do it. You don't ever have to show it to anyone. I don't play guitar to get good at it. I play it because I like to play it. The idea that you are supposed to be creating something, creating a product, has ruined people's ideas of fun! But after trying to drill this into her head, she's finally got it. She says she's going to write because she WANTS to. And I am yelling 'YEAH!' cheering her on like a cheerleader. She is almost fifty! She is almost fifty and she didn't know how to do anything for the sake of fun!  But she's going to now. I'm so proud of her! Yeah!!!!
