Even meeting your future husband is only life altering because then you decide to date him once, to phone him once more, … It’s really only the evolution of those actions that make it life altering. Decisions to start doing sports are only life altering if after your first run or work-out, you do decide to go back the next day etc…<br /><br />Of course that’s not always the case, getting pregnant, quitting a job, … are quite pivotal. And those decisions really frighten me. I’m always afraid to make the wrong choices or to fail making choices when I should."<br /><br />so yeah, I agree that most choices take care of themselves on a daily basis and that realising the impact of some of them would be too nerve braking!Goofballhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11155032632164828945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31107400.post-90988627501645174322010-01-29T13:56:02.322-08:002010-01-29T13:56:02.322-08:00I think that movie demonstrates a belief I have of...I think that movie demonstrates a belief I have often held........that [ALMOST] no matter which path I had chosen, I would be happy with the life I have (as long as I don't know what the alternative is). Some people tend to be happy no matter their circumstances and others tend to be dissatisfied. I just think it is part of our nature.<br /><br />Nevertheless, I am thrilled for you that you are happy with your life partner! Me too.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by the blog!Lori Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15355820008229556939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31107400.post-60233203546452333282010-01-28T23:07:06.751-08:002010-01-28T23:07:06.751-08:00Carol,

That love and respect for each other has carried you through the very difficult time last year. I was so glad for all of you when Tom finally found a job again. Your children seem to be at a good place in their life's too.<br /><br />Who said that a schmaltzy movie can't make one think and have an "AHA-moment"?<br /><br />Kat, FL<br />PS: I am glad that you took only a few days of from blogging.
