If I had it to do all over again

I don't have as much time for coffee or inspired thoughts during the work week. But here's something I was thinking about...

Being a mom of college students and working at a college surrounded by young people is exciting. Everyone is all fired up, on the verge of changing the world and creating their own lives. I often think, if I had it to do all over again, college I mean, what would I major in or what path would I head down. I think I would major in anthropology. I'm really interested in trends in society. Group dynamics in small groups and larger communities. I'm particularly interested in religion and society... why do religions form, why is religion important to communities? Thoughts anyone?

    I think you have the makin's of a great Brand Strategist. We use anthropology a lot in determining the cultures that form around a brand. Religion and/or a value system play a big part in it...

    I'm not sure I'd go to college if given a second chance. Maybe travel and let the world be my professor. :) (As if my parents would even allow that to be an option!)

    Loving this blog, Jilly!
