dare make more mistakes next time. I
would relax. I would limber up. I 1. If I had a fever, I would need a

would eat more ice cream and fewer
beans. I would perhaps have more
actual troubles, but I would have fewer
imaginary ones.
You see – I’m one of those people
who live seriously and sanely hour after
hour, day after day. Oh, I have my
moments. And if I had to do it over
again, I’d have more of them. In fact,
I’d try to have nothing else, just
moments one after another, instead of
living so many years ahead of each
day.
I’ve been one of those persons who
never goes anywhere without a
thermometer, a hot water bottle, a
raincoat and a parachute. If I had to
do
it over again, I would
travel lighter than I
have. If I had to live
my life over, I would
start barefoot earlier
in the spring and stay
that way later in
autumn.
I would go to more dances. I would
ride more merry-go-rounds. I would
pick more daisies.
