Q & A

Knowing what you know now;

What would you tell your 8 year old self? 
                             To insist on knowing why I heard what I heard, to ask my aunts and grandparents                                     and anyone who might tell me the truth. 
What would you tell your 14 year old self?
                             To ignore what the guidance counselor said and to insist on learning trigonometry                                     and  calculus.
What would you tell your 15 year old self?
                             To proceed despite what I've overheard. To believe otherwise; to digest what                                             I've heard and move on and not let it affect me. 
What would you tell your 20 year old self?
                             To accept that job offer in Knoxville, Tennessee with the  Sig Ep connections I've                                      made . 
What would you tell your  30 year old self?
                              To stay at my job at Humana, in Madison.
What would you tell your 44 year old self?
                              To not leave Wisconsin.



All along the way, I've met some cool people, and had things not worked out the way they did, I wouldn't have met them, but it doesn't stop me from wondering what if I could go back in time to make changes, knowing what I know now.
