Things I would do different...Changes to things I want to do in my life
Following on from Jared's post on things he would do differently, I wish I had and then Brenton too, I have often talked to people about this topic and I have a very different view.
I believe that we all are the sum of our experiences, and if we had not done things , or not done things we would not be the people we are today.
I can understand for some people who may have made or had made to them some incredibly bad things which have colored there life going forward. People who have lost their health or mobility due to an accident. But in the great scheme of things without having been through the ups and downs of life you can't appreciate life.
If I dwelled on how nasty some experiences had been, such as being bullied relentlessly at school, I realise that without the bullying I would probably not have the drive and ambition I have today.
If I had not had a bad relationship I wouldn't have been able to find the good one, recognise what was good and accept what was good.
yes there are parts of my past that I embarrassed about, but those situations teach me something too, and I have learnt from my mistakes on how not to make them again!
while we are still alive, we can all look forward, not backwards
So I thought about this and instead of saying I wish I had, this is my Things I want to do and achieve in life! (these are in no particular order)
- Travel into Space (yes I am serious)
- Swim with Whales
- Travel to Antarctica
- Start a Charity Foundation
- Buy an original Chaggal
- Finish LAAPS (finally)
Continue to run businesses and sell one for enough to make us financially secure for life - Buy the bf the car of his dreams
- Get to a point where I am happy with my body
- Have a child or children
Most of these things are incredibly selfish but they are achievable and I will achieve them

So... whats number 10?
Hehe. Nice to see you have some wonderful aims though! I wish I could have number 9..
I love your approach...
Like everyone else I have gone though some horrible and painful experiences in my life and as much as I hated them at the time looking back in retrospect there is nothing that I would do to change them..they got me where I am today and while not perfect it's a pretty sweet place and it makes you enjoy the good times while they are here
Gonna go do my own list now.... :)
Drew, I'd bear your children if you only lived a little closer. :)

OMG - Virpi you know we would share children with you and Sari but yes Finland is just so god damn far away and I can't bring myself to do that!
You need to find yourself some nice gay boy in Finland to help out my two favorite Finnish Minge lickers!
