Don't leave anything for later.
Later, the coffee gets cold.
Later, you lose interest.
Later, the day turns into night.
Later, people grow up.
Later, people grow old.
Later, life goes by.
Later, you regret not doing something... when you had the chance.

This absolutely rings true. The government keeps throwing good money after bad when it’s really more a social than an economic dilemma.
Sure, and does poverty correlate with childhood instability. Any chance that not being poor in a poor neighbourhood kinda helps with stability statistically?
This is really lovely writing, and incredibly wise on long term relationships
