What If....?

What if…?

The most asked question in life,

I often ask it of myself.

The first question I ask

Is what if I had stayed at my first job,

A young chemist in Atomic Energy,

I may well have ended being a renowned scientist,

But would I have been happy,

As happy as I am today.

Looking back in my life

I have always been happy.

Working all my life,

Married to a wonderful lady,

Having children and grandchildren,

Moving into a wonderful new relationship

When my wife passed into heaven.

This may never have happened

If I had not moved from that job,

I would not have known them.

I know that the question will never be answered,

But What if….?
