I forget this all the time, except when I'm programming. I really do love to code, but when I'm away from the computer and I don't feel like coding, I'm actually typically really depressed. At some points in my life, I was lucky to be able to say that I was still alive. Just because someone can get super excited about math and computers doesn't mean that their life is perfect and full of luck either.
