Go on, then.
There is a largely accepted theory in the 'verse that each choice you make creates the opportunity for different paths to follow. Bored or restless or in love or in pain -- they all require choice, then the consequences of that choice form a thread you follow, a life.
The Wheel weaves,
You could start a family, or you could not.
and all things are part of the Pattern.
You could do what you think is right, or do what you think is necessary and hope it's the same thing.
A lot of folk tend to hope for a lot of the same things: love (found in a whorehouse or in a long marriage or in a ship you live on for years), an opportunity to live the where and how and why of your life the way you want to.
Maybe you go all ashes-to-ashes, dust-to-dust a tiny bit earlier than you'd planned, since you'd never planned it at all. Depending on how those where and how and whys you chose, might be more inevitable than you'd thought.
Then again.
There are other worlds than these.
You might not.
