Episode Details

What if you are already living your best possible life? Not the nicest one. The best one available, because it is the only one that happened.

We play what if all day. If the accident had not happened, if the appointment had not been missed, life would have been perfect. You do not know that. I could have been an idiot who killed somebody in a car two months later. You cannot run the other version, so you are comparing your real life to a life you invented. And there is no DeLorean. Twenty toilet seats in a shop and I still cannot pick the right one, so I am not sure I would trust my alternative timeline anyway.

One thing to try: Catch one what if today. Notice you are comparing a real thing to a thing you made up.
