I lost my dad at an early age, and so the shadow of death has been rather more visible to me than my peers. That said, my life has basically taken the form you've described. As a callow yoot you can assume things will only get better, at least when you're not panicking that you're squandering your one chance at youth. Now in my thirties, I'm having to accept that the record deal may not be in the offing, but at least the kids are alright. So it goes.
