what would you do with your life

[rambling man]

if you could start it over again...would you marry the same person, pursue the same career, get involved in something different, move to a new place, go to a different school

what would you do differently? How would life be different for you now?

If I knew then what I know now, I wouldn't have spent so much time mucking around trying to figure out what I wanted to do. It took me eight freakin' years to decide that I wanted to be a teacher, after two bouts of school, programming for almost two years and bartending for four more. Other than that, I wouldn't change a thing, life so far, has been good to me.

Yes, I would do it the same, except I might have chosen a career where I could make a decent living every year...got love those cycles

funny how the value of money to you personally increases as you get older...should have been a damned lawyer

I have money, lots of it, but i live in hiding for the most part.
I've come to the point where i ache and need the freedom to be who i am more openly, regardless of the cost.

Funny how the need to be open about yourself and who you are increases as you get older.

As I look back over the past....there is little I would change. I've come to realize that most annouances are just "blips" in the long road of life. They come and go, and then, in the big picture, amount to nothing!

I was forunate to marry a wonderful man (23 yrs now), have two fabulous kids (okay, they are just becoming teenagers...maybe fabulous will fade), made some dynamic and aggressive career moves that has put me on the top of my GAME. At the time I was filled with self-doubt, but with the hlep of my partner, I've made many good decisions for our family and life together.

I'm very happy....and though there are individual nuisances and instances that I would like to eliminate...I would not make any real changes!

I love questions like this...

I agree w/ Mistress (and no it's not because I can't get enough of her avatar ). Although my marriage didn't work out, it did produce 2 beautiful heathens, and from the marriage I learned a lot about myself and how strong I really am.

I would change my choice of degrees. I think I caved when I chose marketing and business. I would much rather have pursued something in science. But...it's never too late.

I wouldn't have paid to see Milli Vanilli in concert either. *sigh*

Trading degrees

hey Sugarless, I'll trade you a geology degree for your business and marketing one... provided they come with a 30 day no questions asked return policy

I would have become a chef or an interior designer like I wanted to instead of going to business school, though I might still...someday.
I would have studied more in college so I could have graduated last semester instead of next year. And I wouldn't have waited so long to get my life under control.

I would not eat anything with food color so I wouldn't be in the health that I am in, but otherwise I don't think I'd change much.

Everything I am not pleased about was beyond my control, and I don't pity myself about much. But I have a feeling that with that one change, everything would be very different.

 

[curvacious]

I don't think that I would make too many major changes. I might make small ones. I'm fairly happy with the life I have, so if making even a small change drastically changed my whole life as I know it, I don't think I would do it.
