Do you ever think you were born in the wrong place or at the wrong time?

Don't get me wrong I love life, although I do think I'm perhaps wasting it working away and not enjoying it as much as I should. It got me thinking that I should have been born in a different country (ok so I wouldn't be me), but I'm always cold and hate the winters here - always have. It makes me wonder whether I shouldn't have been born somewhere hotter! Do you ever feel like this?

Hi Bizziebod I love my life now with children and grandchildren, but i did enjoy my teen years too..so if i could go back, I'd sure change a few things but I'd prefer living there in that State then the hot one i live now.

My childhood and teenage years were not happy and i must admit i was glad to see the end of em, but they taught me a lot and i can now pass on my experience blessed be

It would be awesome to go back to our teenage years wouldn't it? Obviously as a teenager and not the sensible person I've become now! I'd only like a brief stay though - I wouldn't go back to do it all again!

Noooooooo, I wouldn't swap for the World. I love being here. I love the history and mystery of this country and I just can't imagine myself anywhere else. Although, having adamantly stated that... I did live in Germany for three years, and I became quite attached to the mysteries and ancient history that it holds too. Maybe I was German in another life? My beliefs and feelings in certain circumstances indicate a link. Oh well... I guess we'll never know for sure, but I'm enjoying this time around and I wouldn't change anything, my friend. Brightest Blessings. xxx

I am convinced i was born a couple of centuries out of time. I belong to a much more gentle age where things moved at a much slower pace. I may well have been able to keep up then. Also I feel i should have been born to money. I am sure outthere somewhere is a rich person who hates money, well i love spending it, so couldnt we just swap? blessed be

Given my luck with most things in life, and the way my mind works..sometimes I think I belong in a different era, rather than a different country -- maybe I'd be happier. All in all though I tend not to wish for stuff like this, it kinda just occurs to meh lol.

I think sometimes we all feel like this, I'd like to go back to a different era but with the money I earn now - it would be like living like a millionaire lol! Thanks for your response!

I was born in the south in Louisana and when i was very young we came to Texas..I love it here..The weather is beautiful,the climate is good,and the winters are mild.I am glad i was raised right here in Houston Texas...You have anything you want here,and things stay open all night if you choose to go any where..My History is right here and i plan to be here the rest of my life...I live in a rurial area right outside of town,its country like but close to anything you want.....So no i cannot say i have ever felt this way....I have lived other places for a little while each and i felt as i was out of my comfort zone...

It sounds just like you are meant to be there then, the time and place is right for you! Don't get me wrong I do like living where I am and who I am, but because I'm cold so much of the time I just think I should have been born in a warmer climate! Thanks for your continued support!

the thought never crossed my mind. but sometimes i also wonder what if i'm born to another family. would i have the same situation i have now? don't get me wrong, but i love my family. and i feel so lucky to have them. if you hate winter, why not travel someplace else? or migrate to a tropical country. i'm from the philippines. and though we only have 2 seasons here, i love it here. i'm quite interested with snow though. haha. hope i could get to experience winter too when i go to the US.

I would love to be born during the 70s, I don't know why and I love the things in that generation, values, cultures, clothes. That's just purely my imagination! I love life too but if I could pick a time, I would pick it back then and try once more!

I don't remember too much of the 70's to be honest I was only 9 when they finished, but I do remember some of being a kid and the lovely school holidays and my friends. I would like to go back as an adult now, only for a few days though, not for good! There's been a tv series on here in the UK where a guy had an accident and was transported back to the 70's. It's quite fascinating looking back at all the old cars and fashions!

I've felt like a misfit most of my life. I never thought I was "meant" to be another person, but I always wished i was in another era, like the 50's or something. When there was less technology and regulations and stuff.

It would be good to have been brought up in that kind of era I guess! Thanks for your response!

Yes i sometimes feel that i don't fit in the place esp. wen i am not allowed to express my ideas and thoughts..i wish that i need to be in a place where everyone is free to express themselves and not become a slave to your own thoughts.
