Maybe if...

Maybe if
06/29/2019

 

'maybe if'
a road seldom travelled

'only if'
a road never travelled

'if'
an infinite distance
between
actions

      If only? the most profound question of all. If only?

        Interesting appliance of the "if" word and the ultimate distance between actions. Good read Suresh

          Thanks SURESH : ANGELA HERE : 7pm Monday Morning ! Just checking MPS before I go to work !
          Even @ the tender age of 31 I have lots of IF ONLYS !

          1. If only I*d studied Music I*d have been a World Famous Pianist !
          2. If only I*d stayed in Spain I*d have been a MAMA by now !
          3. If only I*d never gone to New Zealand : I would never have realised that there could be a Country even more Perfect than the UK or SPAIN !
          4. If only I*d never met BRIAN I*d still be looking for MY TRUE LOVE !
          in
          The fact of the matter is despite that quartette of *IF ONLYS* 1. I love my Job as a Physio 2. If Id stayed (with my Grandparents) & married in Spain I would never have met BRIAN ! 3. I dont regret a minute of the Year Ive spent in NZ (so far) and the Authorities have said they would welcome us as Imigrants should we care to apply ! 4. I did meet BRIAN and we have planned our Wedding for Easter 2020 : and we know we will live happily ever after ~ AMEN !

          Blessings & Peace & Love to You & Yours
          Yours as always ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡

            With all the journeys you've taken, that many less 'if only's'

            One of the first questions I was taught in training was to ask: What if? - the only way to explore all the possibilities before coming to a conclusion and giving advice. Great write.

              I believe that we should add a purpose in education, from kindergarten onwards, and that being optional inquisitiveness. No question is stupid, and admit to our limited knowledge. I believe this would encourage individualism and no subject should be taboo. We should not trap ourselves with POLITICAL CORRECTNESS, for only with free and open conversation can we really understand each other. So, What If....

                I'm with you on that - another one from Uni was 'But for'
