Have you ever sat and wondered what your life would be like if you lived in a different time and place? Sometimes I think about how my life would have been if I was born say 20 years earlier. I would have been in my late teens and early twenties during the 60's. Would I have been a political activist screaming about no more war and passing daises out to police officers? Probably. Then I think what if certain monumental things in my life either happened differently or not at all. Like what if I stayed with Dad instead of Mom. Would I be more independent? Would I be a wonderer searching for the perfect place and the perfect person? Would I still have turned to drugs to make me feel normal, or would I have just kept moving around, running from my fears and feelings? The truth is the things I have done and the things that have been done to me made me who I am. It's not that I have regrets about my life, to be honest I only have two. I just wonder what it would have been like. Where would I be today if I had made different choices? I would like to think that all things happen for a reason and I am exactly where I am supposed to be...I enjoy my life today, even with its ups and downs and all the stress I put myself through. Still there are those moments like now when I wonder...what if...

You are who you are suppose to be.God planned everything. You have been given trials so that you could overcome them and help others. That is what you are good at....helping others. You are stronger because of the trials and adversity and even because of the algebra. You will win out in the end. We all have regrets but don't spend too much time with them because you can't change them. Learn from them and add them to your armor that you have forged. You go, girl!!!!!! Muff
