Well, this one wasn't on your list, but I've often said that if I had to start over again, I'd be an optometrist.
You're a health care professional with all that that entails. You get to work with people and genuinely improve the quality of their lives in a very tangible way. But if someone has a serious issue you refer them out, and there's nothing you ever have to deal with at 3 a.m.

That's funny. I've thought the same thing myself. My eye doctor laughs at me because I ask SO many questions when I see him (and I have a lot of eye issues). But I find it all so fascinating.

Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
