You still would have been yourself- with a different personality and altered circumstances. You are not "fixed" like a statue of marble. Humans are highly adaptable. Chance and luck have a huge impact on lives and it is impossible to avoid challenges and surprises. Often our strengths are hidden until provoked or summoned. Plus, you fail to mention the enormous impact parents have on their children and there are other "biggies" like war, poverty, intelligence, physical attributes, religious beliefs or not, etc.// A friend braved the snow Monday and came for lunch- really to show me the photo of a college reunion last autumn that I did not attend- amazing to hear all the dramas and traumas! :-) We have been friends since age 10 and congratulated ourselves on all the good times- the fun times- the 50's were a great decade, depending. Anyway, I finally filled in the blanks of myself from 0 to 10 before we met and she told me to "write a book"!!!
