I was just reading about the multiverse or alternative universes. Basically, it's a bunch of "what ifs" of your life, like if you did this instead of that.
So, I thought about some my "what ifs" and all the odd possibilities.
Like:
- What if I went to the Army instead of college? (it almost happened)
- What if I didn't follow my best friend to Murray State and went UT Knoxville?
- What if I finished college in 4 years instead of 5?
- What if my girlfriend got pregnant in college? (that almost happened too)
- What if I came out at 18 vs 23?
- What if I decided to stay in NYC instead of taking the Cornell job and moved to Ithaca in 2001?
- What if I was Christian?
- What would have happened if I never went to college?
- What if I stayed in the closet?
- What if I was a whore?
- What if I stayed in grad school at Georgia Southern instead of going back to Murray State to complete my Master's degree?
Man, all the time...I think the biggest one I wonder about is: What if I never got that first credit card? What if i knew then what I know now about life?
ReplyDeleteOverall, I am pretty pleased with who I became. But you can't help but think about it little things that would've made things better...
