Absolutely not. When I was a kid, I thought I'd be a scientist with my own lab, and happily married. Instead I am a dairy clerk in a food warehouse, unmarried, and spending time with hookers. Don't you love it when dreams come true?

No, I'm not anywhere close to where I thought I'd be... But I'm very glad to not be there... Had I gone where I thought I would, I would probably be either very lonely, or down a dreadful path... I'll give you an example
I never wanted kids, yet now I have two of them... They have taught me patience, giving, the value of language, love, and yes hurt... I never would have known these things without them...
I never wanted to go to college...Yet I now have a degree... Through this degree I learned that I love learning, I love a challenge and that I'm actually smarter than I ever believed I was... It's also gotten me to realize that the relationships that I thought were healthy for me, weren't...and I've since left them...
I never thought I'd be "unmarried"..Yet here I am... But going through this divorce and separation has taught me more lessons than I could ever list here.. It's also taught me to not be afraid to look at my "negative" side, which is something everyone needs to do...
So no, I'm no where near where I thought I would be...and I'm ever grateful...

No, But I am glad I'm not. I thought I would be finishing my college degree next year and partying. But I'm happily married with a 2 year old girl and another one on the way... I am a stay at home mom and I'm glad that I get to have a chance to be around more when they are little.... i get my party days outta the way when im 40 lol

No, I'm still thinking about that same place I thought of as a kid.

simply put; NO
I realized to late in life that I could have done more, I could have accomplished something, I could have been a contender.
That's not to imply that I'm better than anyone, I feel that we all fall very short of our true potential.
