Retroblog Wish I had done 1981(?)

Even though this is 2009, and not 1981(?), some of my wishes for this past year are the same.

I wish I had kept on doing something even though it was hard.

I probably could have made better use of my time, as there were definitely a few more projects that I needed to do and people I needed to contact.

Everyone needs to earn more money, but just breaking even(ish) in this economy counts for something -- especially when you give up a job to maintain your life and sanity.

I wish I had gone more places, but requires more time and money. In the larger scheme of things this year, thanks to some very good friends, I got to go to a few places that I never would have made it to on my own ... and the memories and photos will sustain me for a very long time.

All in all, I have learned to be grateful for what has happened and what I did manage to do, rather than dwell on the what-might-have-beens.
