Halloween is such a great excuse to dress up, try on a new identity and pretend we are someone or something other than who or what we are.  Most other days of the year it would be considered eccentric at best if we were to try to pull that off.  But in the world of make believe, we have permission to let our minds wander and wonder…

Many times in my life, I must admit, I’ve felt like I have gotten off the freeway at the wrong exit.  I wonder if I’m the only one who has ever felt this way.  Even though I am quite content with my life as it is, it is titillating to imagine how it might have been different if I’d taken the other fork in the road or followed a passion that seemed too impractical at the time to consider.

Woulda coulda shoulda ….

I have a card game that I play with students when they come in for counseling and it involves picking a card from a deck and answering the question posed.  How would you answer this question?

If you could relive one moment of your life, what would it be?  Would you change it?

Not that it matters now…

I’m just trying to scare up a little midlife Halloween mischief!
