^^^^This!
Personally, I'm rather ashamed of not having a family and children. I can joke all day about never finding a woman who'd put up with me but, frankly, it's the most glaring failure of my existence. I should have done better.
All the more important to have those secret memoirs publishedI disagree , Ben.
Had you married and fathered children, you most likely would not have had the travels and experiences you've had.
The vast amount of people you have influenced positively more than make up for not putting down roots and raising a couple of kids.
Just my opinion , based on the impact you've made here.
