How Will You Feel?

If you don't mind me expanding a bit, what are some things you are proud of in your life? (This is aimed at everyone.) What are some things you wish you hadn't done? Aside from the aforementioned time spent tutoring disadvantaged students, I guess I'm proud of the fact that I've done a lot of things in my short life that many people just dream of doing. In my 23 years of living on this earth (well, almost 24 now >_<) I've lived in three countries and visited many others, I've premiered a work as a soloist on the international stage, I've played the violin for a president, I've gotten some poems published, I've loved, and people have loved me. It's been a good life so far, and I hope it will keep being interesting.
One thing I wish I hadn't done was switch my major from nursing to psychology. I don't regret switching out of nursing--not one bit! I was forced to take it by my parents, and I hated it--but I feel like I wasted my time studying psych. It's a wonderful subject, yes, and I got my BS in it, but what I really wanted to do was study music. Fuck it, I'm going back to school soon for it, actually, once I pass all the auditions. I could have saved a lot of time and money if I actually just did what I wanted instead of what I thought was practical.

[12:37:18 AM] Space: this is like my fave
I think it's also because people don't wanna look at themselves as they are right now. Some may feel shame or some may realize that they haven't done much for their lives or the lives of others and that is hard to admit.
No. Its just that some don't really feel the need or drive to go out of their way and help others. Shame? Not really. Not necessarily. Some might, but you should know, not all do.

No, I don't think future me would like current me. I really haven't done much to be admired or remembered. In my current situation, I don't see that changing either, and unfortunately, future me will most likely be current me. Except with some useless degree that only means something to me and no employer.
I certainly would love a good ass kicking from future me, though.

How will the me of 20 years later feel about the me of today?
I don't know what the future me would say, because I don't know what my future me would value.
Would I pity my present self?
Would I hate my present self?
Would I envy my present self?
I don't know.
But if I end up being a normal person, I'd probably hate my present self, and I'd hate my future self just the same. =D

Whenever i got my stipend i always share for who needs most, i'm not the who seek wealth for my own, for what is worth to be wealthy while other people still homeless and in hunger?
In 20 years from now, i will focus myself in public health to prevents the sick in my country, if its possible the world.
I think health is the most vital thing to do in order to make peoples, regardless of their condition, be more productive.
How will i feel about myself now in 20 years later, i feel fine :)

I know what you meant, but if the 21-year-old me went 20 years into the future and looked at the 21-year-old me, I don't know what I would think. I assume you meant something like "Would the me twenty years from now look back at the me right now and say he lived a life I'm proud of?"
I certainly didn't do anywhere near what I could to help others, but that wasn't the focus of the first 21 years of my life. What did matter to me I think I did well at, and for that reason I can say the 41-year-old me would be proud of the 21-year-old me. I am a good son. I outwardly show disdain for my little brother but I'd die for the idiot in a heartbeat. I always had my friends' backs. I got into a great school to study what I love that will hopefully get me a job doing what I love.
To stay roughly on topic I did volunteer several hundred hours of my time in high school to the city I lived in at the time. But would I be proud of myself only for having done that? No.
At the end of High School, my English teacher told us to write a few paragraphs to ourselves ten years in the future. Our class president was responsible for holding on to them until the 10 year class reunion, where we could pick it up then. I'm happy to say I've completely forgotten what I wrote in there, and rather look forward to turning 28.

The only thing I would have regretted was not giving my all in school. I was never really motivated, but now that im out of high school I really wish I could have done better. But other than that I've enjoyed the rest of my life so far.
