Many of us have some frustrations in life. It could be work-related, about a career, family, and even little things or knowledge you had wanted you had.
These are some of my frustrations in life, or wished I had achieved:
1. Be a lawyer. It is one in my bucket wish list when I got tired of working in an office. While watching the trial lawyers in court, defending each other’s sides, I marvelled in the thought that I wished I was one of them and engaged them in verbal match; of contest of logic, and so on.
Even when I retired from work, (early retirement though I was just 44 years old that time), I planned to take an online career or distant home study program leading to a degree in Law. But certain circumstances prevented me from pushing that plan.
2. Learning How to Drive
When I was working in an office, I enrolled in a driving school because we were planning to buy a car that time. But due to very hectic schedule, my plan failed. So now, I always lament that I did not learn how to drive.
Iam too nervous now to learn how to drive because of rude drivers on the road, and the congested traffic!
3.Learning How to Play the Piano or Violin
I always love the sound of a piano and violin. More so of violin which only few people know how to play. I wished I had enrolled in a piano or violin lessons when I was younger!
4. Learning How to Ride a Bike
This is one of my frustrations which still nags me today! If I learned to ride a bike, I can go places without using a car, or using gasoline which is so expensive. It is also a good cardio exercise. So to remedy this, I asked a machine shop to make a three-wheeled bike (trike) for me. I am using it for my morning exercise around our place every morning after I had walked for some 20 minutes.
5. Learning How to Knit.
I know how to crochet, how to embroider, but I do not know how to knit. I admire knitted clothes, socks or caps. So yesterday, I bought a yarn, thread used in knitting, and used two chopsticks as knitting needle. I am learning it through tutorial in Youtube. I hope I can learn it. I already learned the basic casting, or the first step, but I wanted to learn it all, hopefully!

I share your frustration in learning how to drive.
I actually was already learning how to drive through my husband. However, once with my hubby on the other side of the front seat and me on the driver's seat, I tried to drive. It was at first slow and smooth until I saw a big truck coming. I got so nervous imagining that i might hit my side when we are already near with each other.
I drive the car on the side and stopped and told my husband, I can't drive.
From then on, I never tried again. Now, whenever I see my batchmate driving her car from our practice, I would feel a little envious that she could drive.
Though, I don't let her big 4 by 4 car go inside the small rough road going to our neighborhood because I fear that it might not fit and scratch on the small road with both sides of concrete fence. ha ha ha
She too is nervous of trying to let her car go in. So, I would be dropped by the main road and would walk a small distance to our house. ha ha ha
