What could have been if I stayed home

According to my Chinese Astrology sign I am usually very good in business dealings, and you know there might be some truth to that. You see, I used to sell candies at home and made a lot of money doing so. I sold cigarettes to my uncles and neighbors...LOL. I doubled my money selling knick-knacks. If I stayed home, I reckon that I would be selling junk foods and beverages right now each time our village has a ball-dance going on. I would have to also learn how to sew clothes as another way for me to make extra money. I made hundreds of pesos while I was home doing it as a beginner I tell you and I enjoyed it for a while...LOL. I spent it on my own-a good thing my mother didn't see the money...LOL. If I could do nothing else I would be in Manila working probably as a nanny or a house maid-it's sad, if not then probably married with a few children by now. However, I can never predict nor second guess about what could have been, because things don't really happen as you sometimes had hoped or even planned. Also we don't often end up marrying someone we like-someone we usually have a crush on...LOL, which is why who knows what could have been and what could have not been.
I know that if I chose to stay home I would do what I can do to survive for sure. My parents especially my mother wanted me to finish school and get a skill even just a secretarial course. She wanted me to go to school and become a secretary because that would be all they could afford. It makes me wonder sometimes what would have happened if I did stay home. A lot of things go through my mind just thinking about what could have been. Reminiscing the good old days is fun. Oh, the memories I have of home will never fade away. Every time I remember a happy even annoying moment with all the people I crossed paths with; it simply makes me smile. I am certain that I would make a good business woman. I can run a business successfully and I hope that someday I own a business indeed. I have the will for it anyway, and who knows that perhaps I have what it takes to make a business grow.
