Is There Something You Wish You Had Done With Your Life But Haven't?

[catalina_francisco]

Seems many of us have had dreams of what we would have loved to do in an ideal life, but for some reason have not. What's yours? For me I always wanted to go somewhere and work for the good of others, not for recognition as I actually would prefer to be not be noticed for it, but still to actually feel you could make a difference for someone less fortunate. I used to think it was my dream until a year or so ago when F also mentioned he often feels he should be doing somthing in a similar vein. I would love it if we could do it together at some point, somewhere.

I wish I had gotten my MFA when there would have been a point to it, right after the BA.

But then I'd be eating ramen, have moved 18 times in the last 10 years and be teaching art hopefully. So it's OK.

Sometimes I wish I hadn't fallen in love so young. I got married right after college so other then the 4 years of dorm life and 1 of off-campus apartment living I never really was single. One year of both being out of school and living on my own would have been great. But I am still happily married after 20 some years so I really can't complain.

catalina--my husband and I have talked about doing something for others, also. We figure once we get the kids through college we can live off his pension and do something together. Just not sure what yet.

I had an academic scholarship to get my Masters in Nursing and stopped after two years. I'm a nurse..but I never got my Masters. I wish I would have gone on..but the reason I quit was to get married and have babies. There isn't a day that goes by that I'm not thankful for my husband and children. I just wish I could have worked it out better then so that I could have stayed in school. It gets a bit more complicated to go back once you have little ones to tend to. I know I can still go back and I plan too..but it's on hold for now until my kids get a bit older.

I wish I could have finished the second year of my college course, but after being bullied and moving colleges, I felt I have had enough of education and decided to go into work...a good move...but sometimes, even more, I look back and wishing that I could have finished the two years of that Business Admin. course...even though I am now graduated from university.

The other thing is, that I wish I have the confidence I have now with guys when I was at school and after leaving school, so that I would have had more experiences. Oh well..... still at least I am catching up!

I wish I'd finished college. I wish I'd gone after my teaching degree. I wish I'd had sex with Bert in college when he wanted to.. *giggles*
