montemonte: I interpret the title of the thread to be about what I would do over in my life.
I would have gone on to higher education and taken better care of my health

Wellllllllllllllll, I have very bad arthritis in my knee and it prevents me from normal walking. I'll be having a knee replacement in Sept. or Oct. and then after that I'll be moving. When I get settled in after I move I might take take a class to see how well I do with that and if I get an A+ I might consider classes with credits. I already have some credits but I don't want to go back into the legal field so I'm not sure what kind of classes I would take. I'm sure sure what I want to do with the rest of mee life. If I could do what I really want to do it would be to work with children that have been abused but that takes years and years of higher education. I don't think I'll live that long...

Hiya V If someone has their health and wits about them, I see no reason why they can't pursue whatever they want. I really admire the mayor of Mississauga, Hazel (Hurricane) McCallion...she is one very spry and intelligent woman for her age.

I'm happy for you V and congrats! Does this mean you've completed your courses now or almost there. I admire your motivation which I seem to be lacking these days.

I will be graduating after my placement next month...I did recieve two awards so far which totally surprised me
When I was 15, I had an opportunity to compete towards entering into track and field and high jumps at the Olympics. I turned it down for fear of losing as I was extremely competitive at the time and also very shy. To this day, I often wonder if I blew a golden opportunity or not. But I do believe the choices we make throughout our lives are the ones that were meant to be.
