Hunter S. Thompson on Finding Purpose

Hunter S. Thompson was an incredibly intelligent and interesting person who wrote some fantastic books. His output also became sadly reduced to a shell of what it was after many years of drinking and drugging. However, when he was lucid, he was extremely insightful, and this letter to a friend on how he should find his purpose is essential reading. 

Money quote: “…a man must choose a path which will let his ABILITIES function at maximum efficiency toward the gratification of his DESIRES.”
