One of my favorite movies is Sliding Doors. If you haven't seen it, rent it. It beautifully illustrates how subtle changes in what you do on a typical day can change your life. Several posts ago I talked about "what ifs?" I have some really deep ones and some really shallow ones. Here's my first off the top of my head list:
What if...
- I did cardio?
- I never sold my red, 1974 convertible VW Bug?
- I had sex with the guy named Kevin in high school, that had a huge schlong, instead of telling him no? (forgot your last name Kevin but, I remember your schlong).
- I really read Moby Dick, instead of the Cliff Notes?
- My Dad wouldn't have died so young?
- I would have never opened the door when John showed up on my door step after I caught him in lie #1 of 5000+ lies?
- Apple came out with one great ipod that did it all without coming out with a new one every 6 months? (that I inevitably buy).
- I didn't give a second thought to mean people that I want to inflict The Punisher™ on?
