A Lot of Things Different
I am in a nostalgic mood tonight... main catalyst being that I received an email several days ago... from a very dear friend... a man that I was best friends with from the time I was in the 4th grade until after highschool. A combination of that email, the long chat we are having online this evening... and the song (the title of the thread) has got me thinking about the what if's in life..
do you have anything you would have done differently?

Knowing what I know now...only nearly everything I've ever done, would I do differently...but if I did, what would I be now?

As much as I would like to, proabaly not. It might mean not having and knowing the friends and loves I have now.

I would change a lot....I'd make different, better choices..things that I'm starting to do NOW.
I'd think different and I'd probably behave different. (I happen to LIKE this me, and I'd stop hiding it from everyone else...my mom knows it's in there but I'm fairly sure the rest of the world has no idea who the REAL ME is.)
Oh, and I'd stop being embarrassed about who I am too.

Did I say I was happy with where I am? Nah, in the words of Steve Earle, I ain't ever satisfied...

It's not that I'm specially happy, just afraid of who and what I'd
be if anything had been changed.

Afterwards it is always easy to say what to have done differently. I would have banned my wife out of my life.

Wouldn't change a thing. not even my first marriage...if it hadn't been for the path I've trod getting here, I wouldn't have learned the lessons that made me what I am today.

I have to agree with Nuelaan!Thinking back;all of the things;that you didn't enjoy then or regretted;were actually fun and part of the learning process.All in all;I'm fairly happy;with how things have turned out!Life has had;MANY rough spots;but it's how you handled(sp) them that counts! Irish
P.S.Sometime;think back;to the people voted;Most Likely to Succeed;in High School.MOST of them are failures now.Look at the people;most likely to fail(Me).The results are different;when you have to do things yourself;and not handled by rich parents!

I wouldn't change any of the big things, but I would have said yes (to myself and to opportunities) a bit more then I did .... would like to have been a little less concerned about what other people think and a bit more concerned with who I want to become.
