Day to Day happenings in my life

Changing places

Hi, sorry I’ve been missing for a week from 30DBC. I managed to knock myself out and land in hospital for three days. I fainted in the bathroom and hit my head on the toilet. Broke the seat and my head, giving me a good dose of concussion. Still feel permanently drunk. Hopefully it won’t last too long.

PROMPT July 24th

If you could switch places with one other person, who would it be and why? What in particular would you do?

I can’t think of anyone I’d like to swap places with. One never knows what anyone has going on in their lives. What may seem ideal, wonderful and perfect could be, and probably is, just a front.
Someone told me something I’ve always remembered. If you, your friends and acquaintances sat around in a circle and threw all their problems into the middle and you could take any you liked, you’d soon grab your own back.
Having said that, I gave it some more thought. Royalty? Not a chance. Movie star? Too much pressure, notoriety and exposure. If I really had to choose, it would be with someone who saved people’s lives, someone like a surgeon. There was one in particular I’ve always admired, his name was Fred Hollows. He saved the sight of thousands of people in third world countries. For a $25 donation to the Fred Hollows Foundation you can save the sight of a person. How amazing it would be to be someone like him?
