    Was pushed into thinking I wanted to be a teacher. I didn’t.

    All the time. I wanted to be a programmer in high school. Watching hubby go through the garbage he has in his career, nursing was much better, plus I was able to do some real good.

    I thought I wanted to work alone. Determined later that was the opposite of what I wanted.

    Thank God, I didn’t become a permanent city staff person, and was able to decide, and choose where and how I worked, and to learn and do other things also. Thank God always.

    No. I knew what I wanted and lived it. It was like I wasn’t working at all. I never said to myself.. I don’t want to go to work.

    I am not sure. Some desicions in my life were good, others not. And some were inevitable- even if I did not like them much.

    I’m grateful that I didn’t get into my first choice college, though I was pretty upset at the time.

    Yes! If I ever get access to a Time Machine, I will go back and try to convince myself to not even start to travel that path!

    Some of God’s greatest gifts are unanswered prayers ( heard that in a song somewhere)

    No, Aunty, I did not. I thought about what I believe I wanted FIRST, and realized that what I thought about is what I wanted.

    This has happened more times than I can count. I’ve dodged a bullet many times.

    What you desire is not necessarily good for you especially in the long term.

    Absolutely! I thank God that he directed me away from what wasn’t good for me. I didn’t understand it before, but when you look back, it’s enough to make you so grateful.
