I basically have my life today as a result of what I did as a child. What did I miss out on? Yeah, I missed not hanging out at shopping malls, I guess, but that is not a big deal because you don't get a medal for that.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As a child, I didn't know what I didn't have. I'm thankful for the challenges early on in my life because now I have a perspective on the world and kind of know what's important.
For me, having the opportunity to go to college was very important. To miss out on an education is a loss.
I really missed going to college. I missed not having that education and that experience.
I hardly ever missed school, and I always got my work in on time. I was a good student and always got top grades.
You give up your childhood. You miss proms and games and high-school events, and people say it's awful... I say it was a good trade. You miss something but I think I gained more than I lost.
I miss my kids sometimes and that can get me down when I've been away working, but then I wake up and recognize how incredibly lucky I am. Spending time being down is less time out there achieving and enjoying.
I left school at 15 feeling fairly useless and not really up to scratch in my education. And I still suffer sometimes from that lack of education.
I think what most people miss, and what I missed last time, are the people that are important in your life. You know, the relationships you have with people on the ground.
There's nothing I miss about anything in the whole wide world. The idea of missing something means you're not living in the moment. Every moment is good for something.
I don't miss anything I did for a living.
