I’d Pick More Daisies
By Nadine Stair, age 85
If I had my life to live over, I'd try to make more mistakes next time.
I would relax. I would limber up. I would be sillier than I have on this trip.
I would be crazier. I would be less hygienic.
I would take more chances, I would take more trips.
I would climb more mountains, swim more rivers, and watch more sunsets.
I would burn more gasoline.
I would eat more ice cream and less beans. I would have more actual troubles and fewer imaginary ones.
You see, I am one of those people who lives prophylactically and sensibly and sanely, hour after hour, day after day.
Oh, I have had my moments
And if I had it to do over again, I'd have more of them.
In fact, I'd try to have nothing else.
Just moments, one after another.
Instead of living so many years ahead each day.
I have been one of those people who never go anywhere without a thermometer, a hot water bottle, a gargle, a raincoat,and a parachute.
If I had to do it over again, I would go places and do things.
I'd travel lighter than I have.
If I had my life to live over, I would start barefooted earlier in the spring
and stay that way later in the fall.
I would play hooky more.
I wouldn't make such good grades, except by accident.
I would ride on merry-go-rounds.
I'd pick more daisies!

Welcome me back..
Gosh, i dont believe i had ignored you blog for the longest time, its been hmm, 2months since.. its the age thing again, I forgot that I had you dear blog.. anyways, here i am, too much things had happened this past few months. On the love frontier, I found him but lost him and gained a friend instead (we both agreed that if fate is on our side, we shall be together, but to me it's just wishful thinking,I'm not doubting you God, im doubting myself again.. sob sob), Love complication, matters of heart, dearie, what's new. I believe everything happened for a reason, so just keep moving on..
I was having a casual conversation with some friends on Sat morning at about 1.15am, over teh tarik & morning dew. We were talking about some financial things, when I said something like 'since im gonna be alone when im old, might as well save some money', my guy friend that i was talking to cut in, wat makes you so sure that you're gonna be alone, don't you think tat somewhere out there there is a guy who is exactly having the same sentiment as you but still continues looking for love? I was a tad bit silent after tat but managed to pull a 'yeah im sure' but then silence again..Well, he went on saying tat from his past experience that he had, you just need to continue looking for THe ONe and not give up.. Well, hmm im not too sure about tat, dear fren (coz he is dating my girlfrend now, so all that positive attitude makes me more hmm cloudily sick).. i just turn a potential husband material into 'friend' status, so don't tell me to look for someone else coz rite now im not in the mood to look for him anymore, i'm resigned to spinsterhood for the rest of this year..cheyy...
Anyways, looking at a sunnier side in my life, i passed my final theory driving test, and I'm pushing myself & trying hard to get that license by this year. I stopped for a year to do my house in KL..at least that is something that is within my control, and i know a driving license won't break my heart, unlike men.. haha..
