A Van Down By the River

I once underwent a very intensive intervention during that period in my childhood known as teenage rebellion. I had a session with a great motivational speaker who claimed to live in a van down by the river. "I very much like you did the things you now do," he said with a tone very harshly delivered, "I'm now 35 years old, divorced and flat broke and I live in a van down by the river. You think you're all that, but I assure you you're not. Live your life the way you are and you won't amount to jack squat! You will end up being what you never ever considered, busted broke just like me and living miserably in a van down by the river." This man truly did save me from a life of misery, because if not for he I would have never ever considered how great life can be, as I now live my life so care free in my van down by the river.
