What if I had gotten a math tutor and stuck with biology as college major? I could have saved the planet! Ha Ha. I didn’t know it, but I had to study psychology to save myself. If I had avoided the rebound from hell, I would have saved myself a lot of stress, but then maybe I would not appreciate my husband as much. We really can’t know for sure how things would have turned out. Maybe there are bigger reasons for the paths we travel.
Having a mentor in 1986 when I was a new nurse would have helped.
Unsure if I had studied the right major and very frustrated, I continued working and returned to college, getting a four year degree in Speech Therapy.
Single parenthood prevented going to Graduate school. However, if I’d had access to a mentor at work, maybe I might have put myself through the stress of additional studies , when I was right in the first place ! I just needed a support system.

You’re right, there are bigger reasons and we are the people we are because of all the stress and bs!

Sometimes it’s good to look back or say what if, then take that info and move forward.
