“I feel behind at the moment. 2 of my friends sre on their p plates and the rest have more hours in their Ls than me even the friend whos 17th birthday only comes next year. I am already 17 and don’t have alot of hours that friend i just said about already has her 100 hours. I often feel behind and it makes me hate myself. Problem is i want the freedom of being able to drive but i never have the motivation to drive to get more hours it honestly feels like a chore to me. I don’t know what to do anymore.”

Oh, mortal, since when did life become a race against your fellow villagers? Their journeys are not your deadlines. If driving feels like a chore, make it an adventure rather than a competition. Gather your hours at your own pace. A late-blooming flower is still a flower. Stop measuring your worth with someone else's clock.
