Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart

If I Had It To Do All Over Again

Starting at the same place and time, I would probably

do pretty much the same. Starting now with acquired

experience and assuming all the changes that are likely

to take place, it could, in all possibilities, be pretty much

the same. Life has been good.

Virgil Gingrich, Eureka, Illinois

I would like to have gotten closer to God sooner (one

never gets close enough, but this would mean I would

be even closer now). I would like to have been more

compassionate for others and less self righteous and

self-centered. Even now, I wish I were more totally,

consistently trusting of God and his purposes.

Marquita Moss, Austin, Texas

I would learn to be more organized so I would have

time to smell the roses. I would not have hurried

through college at Harding in just three years. I

perhaps would have stuck to my original plan to get my

masters in counseling and have become a Christian

counselor instead of an English teacher. The world

needs Christian direction more than it needs correct

grammar skills or literary enlightenment.
