Over 30's hindsight

Ok all you over 30's what would you do different if you had to live your life all over again.

(1) I would have a work ethic.

(2) I would completly ignore anything to do with astrology.

(3) Never buy a new car.

(4) Not be over fussey to who shall be my partner.

 

Ok all you over 30's what would you do different if you had to live your life all over again.

(1) I would have a work ethic.

Nope, I already have one. If anything I would have modified it from the current (protect your co-workers) to the more common (lie, cheat, steal and cover yours ass).

(2) I would completly ignore anything to do with astrology.

Already do that too. If someone wants to know what my sign is, that's cool, but I would not make decisions based on constellation alignments.

(3) Never buy a new car.

Never have owned a new car. That has always been based on finances rather than anything else. If I had the bucks to plop down for a new car, I'd do it in a heartbeat. I have always bought my cars in full and in cash!

(4) Not be over fussey to who shall be my partner.

Never had one. I think being fussy saved me from some horrific situations that would have been dreadful to get out of.

NOW if you're asking me what I would have done differently, I'd probably say stick out the four years of college at my parent's home rather than being on my own before I had a job. Don't borrow money against a credit card with the confidence of having a job in a few days. Don't lend your car to friends (offer to drive them if need be). Never become dependent upon any one food source or beverage.

 

I'd be fussier about my committed relationship partners, and not take in every bird with a broken wing, so to speak...I'd make sure I was only with someone who was respectful and beautiful on the inside, and someone willing to give us much as they take.

Love, Peace & Bliss,
Goddess Om

 

I wouldn't have my head in the clouds so much...

but the problem is, my head is still in the clouds.

 

Not a damn thing.I'm happy and have a clear concious.It all kind of worked together to get me where I am now.


Everybody knows this is nowhere

 

I'd probably do a lot of things different.
First I'd of gotten a better education. Went to college and learned something. Second, I'd of waited a lot longer to get married and start a family. I'd of loved to traveled more when I was younger. Seen the world.
Third, I'd of hit the lotto, became rich, and helped all the handicapped,hungry,sick, and orphaned children of the world.

 

I would do everything pretty much the same,except I would not have married my present wife.

 

I would never have sweated any of the small stuff.

I would have opened my heart more fully to spiritualism earlier.
I would have eaten my mothers cooking.
I would not have waited so long to go back to Vermont to find Larry.
And if I had never hooked up with my Larry...I would have tried to find Homebudz....

 

Also I wish I had never touched margerine or believed any of that high complex carbohydrate nonsence.

 

I would have been more serious about finishing college.

I'm doing what I love to do, living where I want to live, my wife is alright, but that little shingle could give me more choices.

...and I would have traveled more

 

I greatly admire and respect your honesty Homebudz.

 

I have worked hard my whole life to live my life with no regrets, so if I did it again, hopefuly I would always make the same choise. But of course I know I would not, that is why there is always a diferent "song of the day"

 

A big hug and kiss to you Teepi,you are special.

 

I wouldnt have spent so long in college and gotten out in the real world more. But its nice to have been a proffessor too. I would have learned to make something with my own hands instead of just crafting thoughts and words. I would have learned how to be a good man in a commited relationship sooner. Still learning. Drunk less beer, eaten more salads. Learned to exercise sooner. Been less quick to get angry and more focused and directed when I was. Never bet on the Patriots in the late 80s. And learned to play the guitar.

 

Waste everyone under the age of thirty five!!!

 

Yeah Sure... Kill all the violent people.

 

I love that and it's so true teepi~!! I would never have sweated the small stuff

I think there's few regrets for me...to have had more focus on my dreams
to have worked harder to realize them...maybe to not have wasted so much time goofing off, however fun it was at the time,lol.

 

I would have said "I Love You" more....
I would have played more and not worried about the grass stains...
I would have lived in the moment, every moment and took all I could from it....
I would have let myself grieve more for lost loves or lost friends, or lost pets.
Iwould have laughed out loud more, whether it was appropriate or not....
I would have hugged my daughter more.

 

RUBY!!!!!!!!

Been missing you!!!!

Are you doing OK????

 

I must make amends..
