> The really important thing is to teach kids to find their joy.

As an adult, how can I find joy? I've been trying out various hobbies, but eventually, all of them became a chore. I really miss the feeling of fixating on something and getting lost in it, but it's not coming back. I'm so jealous of people who have a passion, because I just don't.

As a serial hobby-hopper myself, I have come to realize that anything worth doing is at times dull and tedious. Passion is not always intense joy, it's appreciating the highs and tolerating the lows. Don't get caught up chasing cheap thrills.
