What If?

I read the blog of one of my friends, and I was so jealous. She has the job I always wanted, working in Student Services at a College....and she is making plans for her future......possibly considering the Peace Corps.......

I wanted to join the Peace Corps since I was in high school....but I got married and had a baby...and can no longer do those things. I mean, I could I guess...but that is not something my husband is really interested in doing...and with Willie's healthy problems, I don't think moving to a 3rd world country is the best idea...

But I miss being like that. I miss being optimistic about my future, I miss having the world as an open book before me...just waiting for me to explore its pages....

Don't get me wrong, I love my husband and my son and I would not trade them for anything....or any experience.

But, still, I wonder at times....what if?
