Whilst reading one of the blogs I follow (The Amazing Adventures of Dietgirl), I came across this idea: What is something you'd love to say to your younger selves of 2, 5, 10 and 15 years ago?
2 years ago (2006): Make the most of your time in Argentina and don't give up on the Tango. Ok, the men won't want to dance with you because you're taller and wider than they are but persevere!
5 years ago (2003): So you've just finished in Egypt. Don't dwell on the negatives, remember the positives. Later you'll think back and thank AF for being such a bitch!
10 years ago (1998): you've got about six months left in your current job, learn everything you can about the redundancy policy, clear the decks and make a plan for the coming eighteen months - DON'T waste that time.
15 years ago (1993): What the hell are you doing with your life? You're holding down a full-time job and a full-time voluntary post and getting no thanks for either. Get away from the television at the weekend and get a life!
If I seem unduly harsh on myself, it's because I can now see some of the mistakes I've made in my life. BUT I have no regrets. Regrets are for losers. The wise person learns from her mistakes and doesn't repeat them (which must make me a moron).
