If You Could Turn Back Time . . .

Published

If you could go back in time 10 years and give yourself a piece of advice (knowing what you know now), what would it be?

Hi Ronna

Is your real name "Ronna"?.......it is not a common name.

My real name is Ronna.....

Just wondering....always like to hear "another Ronna"

I would have become a veterinarian and worked in a zoo...possibly specializing in endangered animals. I would have loved to work with Jack Hanna or Steve Irwin. But as I grew up, I was encouraged to get good grades, get a good job, get married and stay home with the children.

That didn't work out too well.:rolleyes:

I would have completed my ADN instead of stopping at LPN. Now it's so hard to go back. Or I would have went to college to become a Special Education teacher, instead of listening to my son's father, at the time.

Hello Ronna

Yes, Ronna is my real name, Ronna Dean, named after my dads brother, Deanne would have been more feminine don't you think? What is your middle name? I was 16 yrs old when I found out that I was not the only Ronna in this world, bout broke my heart:scrying:

I would've paid more attention to what I really WANTED to do with my education/career, and also more attention to what my gut was telling me about my crummy marriage, sad to say....if the former had been thought out more carefully, I would have had more control over the latter....live & learn....

AMEN to that!!! Some of us (me) tend to do more living than learning :uhoh3: . It's never too late though!
