These may very well be my favorite lines from Morrissey as a Smith. And these lines come to me very often. I am now 30. I can't offer much guidance, except to say that finding out what you want to do in life, in all aspects of life, education, career, family, marriage, relationships, spirituality, religion, values, morals, politics, etc., is not easy. You have go looking & do a bit of investigation and research. You have to do some work. Some of these things just come to you and sort themselves out, as time (like a wave that makes a rough rock eventually smooth) carves out the person you become. It is only when you know what you want or have some notion of it, that you can then realize it. And this is not easy either...but at least when you have drive, ambition, zeal, and goals/hopes/dreams to focus those energies on, you are not shooting in the dark.
> I have always been struck by the Morrissey lyric "and when you want
> to live how'd you start, where'd you go, who do you need to know??"
> from the TBWTTIHS, as sadly i can relate to it rather too well.
> Does anyone have any answers to this question?
