I always have this nagging feeling that anyone else living in my shoes would have made better/funner/smarter deciscions in life. Does anyone else ever feel that way? It's not that I've ever done anything that wound be in jail/debt, etc. it's just that I seem to be average at everything. I hear about these people who live exciting lives, or who defied the odds to be a success - and I think about advantages I had in life and wonder if someone else would have made the most of them while I played it safe or screwed it up. Just wondering if any else feels this way, and why I feel this way. |

"Non qui parum habet, sed qui plus cupit, pauper est." I wonder how many times I will quote that one. :D |

Thought you would just google it. :P I don't know the English quote but it is something like "It isn't the one who has little, but the one who craves for more, whom is truly poor". Latin saying. |

" I hear about these people who live exciting lives, or who defied the odds to be a success - and I think about advantages I had in life and wonder if someone else would have made the most of them while I played it safe or screwed it up." it seems your comparing your self with others well i can say is that we got different expectation in life and we have different values and how we valued it well i read a qoute reads like "the greatest regret is not about the things you've done but thing you haven't" (hmm its pretty hard for me to post things my mind is pretty cloudy with other topics) |
