“Ambition.” It’s a funny word with all sorts of different meanings

Backwords from Ace 1 Minute

When I was a young man I was incredibly ambitious. I wanted it ALL!!!

I wanted to be one of the greatest artists of all time!! I wanted to make love with the most beautiful women on the planet!! I wanted to achieve cosmic enlightenment and become One with the Universe!!

Nowadays, I just want a couple of beers to drink in the evening, some warm blankets to sleep on at night, and a couple of beautiful feral cats to wake up to in the morning.

I’m happier and quieter these days.
