    Although I had many amazing experiences at Russell Byers, the majority of my years were pretty grim.

    The colloquial idiom to “kill time” is commonly heard in passing. Whether it is a baby’s first steps, a first car, or even a marriage ceremony, a communal ideology remains that life contains nothing more than waiting for the momentous events. However, this theory of “killing time” whilst waiting for the future also kills any chances of obtaining a purposeful life.

The great American poet, Robert Frost, gives unique insight on the recognizable struggle between balancing the demands of society with one’s personal search for purpose.…
