What Would It Be?

I was driving home the other night, thing about what ifs.

What would have happened if Noah had joined the military like he wanted to back in college?

What would have happened if he picked a different major?  Would he be a college professor, working an odd assortment of office hours and class times?

What about me?  I don't regret becoming a nurse.  9 days out of 10 I would probably say that nursing is still the career I would choose.  That other 1 out of 10?  I would probably say I wish I had become a Medical Examiner.

If I were to go back to school to advance my education, I would go back to get a certification in palliative care.  Possibly to become a Clinical Nurse Specialist, maybe to become a Nurse Practitioner.  Never to be a Nurse Anesthetist.

What about you?  Do you like the career path that you have chosen?  What is it that you would answer if it was a 1 out of 10 day instead of one of the other 9.

What would you really like to  be?
