Paths not taken

You just came out and everything is new. What do you think runs through our little heads? Oh my God what did I sign up for???? Haha... Really though since we hadn't learned anything yet in terms of communication do we even have thoughts then? Or is it possible that we actually come out knowing words but just need to be taught how to say them? Strange question I know. Well I'm a strange person just full to bursting with strange questions. Like when do you suppose we first decide who we are? I don't know about you but me I've had a few to many moments when I ask myself -" Just when was it that I chose this for my life?" " Was this what I had in mind when I made the choices I had before me?" And the biggest question of all - " Do we really always have a choice on everything or do we end up where we end up and only the paths to get there are our making?" Makes you wonder doesn't? What if you could go back in time to any given place and change just one thing in your life? Would you? Who do you think you would be today if you did?

I think we are handed a lot of stuff in life due to interactions with the world and other people. But we get to choose how we react to it all thereby influencing the things that come after. Would I change anything? No, I wouldn't want to see how it could have been as it could have been better or worse. I'm happy enough with where I am in life. I am not one who rocks the boat!
