While this may sound like a question from the final round of a beauty pagent, take some time and think about it. ‘If you could go back to any point in time, what would you change?’
I think that everyone wishes that one or two things had never happened or had happened differently. While for some it may be historic and world changing, for others it might be extremely personal. I actually know someone who says if he could change things, he would have stopped the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs. Guess he hates mankind and is hell bent on wiping himself out as well. Hmmm, good luck with that.
So continuing down this road, what would your wish be for? Would it be to change your 12th standard marks… or to have said hello to your neighbour’s daughter (who is now happily married and lives in Botswana)… or maybe it would be to have bought a Bajaj Pulsar 180 (DTS-i) instead of the Pulsar 150. So while you ponder about what you would like to have been different in the world or with yourself, here are a few thoughts that might have caused some people to wish that things had turned out differently. Let’s see if you can guess all eight of them.
Vijay – Okay, since I forgot to get my own list let’s go with Rahul’s list.
Rahul – Oops, looks like I brought my book cricket dream team along by mistake.
Ram – Isha used the script as toilet paper by mistake. No issue, we’ll make up the dialogues as we go along.
Jerry – This looks like a nice search engine. Let me use it instead of Alta Vista. What difference would that make?
Bill – If I can sell a product that rhymes with tune, people will buy it no matter how crap it might be.
Neville – Am sure that if I treat this Adolf guy as a gentleman, he will respond as one. After all, the Pygmalion Theory must be true.
Tom – Passion. That’s what I must show. Let me do something spontaneous, something wild. I feel so live, so energized, so jumpy. Wow, what nice furniture she has.
Jen – I trust him. So what if she has a reputation. He won’t do a ‘Ross’ on me.
And as a note to a friend, I know a certain CFA who will say, ‘What did I do! Am such a loser. Just look at how happy she is’.
