Clicking Our Heels – Redoing Life – Maybe


At some
point in life, one looks back and contemplates a re-do. Stiletto Gang members
are no different, but the question is whether given the chance to re-do
anything, would they?

Paula
Benson – Maybe I would have gone to the Bristol Speedway to watch a race with
my father, uncles and cousins. 
Maybe.  But, I don’t think so.

Cathy
Perkins – Not work 9-gazillion hours at the day job and spend more time writing
or enjoying one of my other creative outlets.

Dru Ann
Love –Would have gone to graduate school.

A.B.
Plum – Start Writing for publication earlier.

Juliana
Aragon Fatula – Go to college when I was twenty not fifty. I would have a Ph.D
in

literature instead of a Ph.D in life.

Linda
Rodriguez – I’d try to worry less and have faith that things would eventually
work out, as I’ve found they usually do. 
I say “try” because this is a lesson I’m still learning.

Bethany
Maines – Community college. Not the actual going, but the rate at which I did
it. I took far too long to figure out where I was going and what I was doing.

Kay
Kendall – I would quiz my parents and grandparents about their lives in an
in-depth way, making notes so I would never forget.  There are many things I want to ask them so
much more about, now that it is way too late.

Sparkle
Abbey:

  Anita – I can’t think of anything I’d like to
redo. Maybe the last family road trip. 6 people, jammed inside a Grand Caravan
for 20 days. We saw Mt. Rushmore, Custer Park, Yellowstone Park, the Redwoods,
Napa Valley, San Francisco, LA, Laguna Beach, Hoover Dam and Las Vegas … maybe
it wasn’t as great as I think it was.

  Mary Lee – I can’t say that I have many
things I’d re-do.  Even some of the bad choices
eventually led to good things.  However,
if I could re-do anything in my life, I think it would be my education. At the
time, I simply didn’t realize all the options out there…

J.M.
Phillippe – I would have stuck with dance when I was a kid, and made it more a
part of my life. I have found myself at various times in my life drifting to
and from it – and I always wish I could make more room for it in my life.

Debra
H. Goldstein – Given in to being a writer and comedienne vs. a lawyer and
judge.
