I'd take up my time building musical instruments of wood and string. Then on the weekends spend my time performing with them to sell them to passers by and young people who catch the music in their eyes and want to strike embers from their fingertips as well. Could be a better life for sure!

I would still be in the US military and just now reaching the upper echelons of middle-management (E-7,E-8).

A street-fighter. Or a knight of the round table. Or a court jester. Or a gynecologist. Or an astronaut. Or a racing driver. Or a pro arm wrestler. Or an archeologist. Or a trapper in Canada. Or a novelist. Or a mechanic. Or an electrician. Or a baker. Or a bull fighter. Or a nurse. Or a violinist. Or a sheep shearer. Or a candlestick maker. Or a book binder. Or a kindergarten teacher. Or a prison warder. Or a soldier. Or an explorer. Or a biologist. Or a historian.
I have done at least one of the above.

That's a really nice set of options you got there !

Being American there is a good chance you have been a soldier, or a prison warden I would venture...

Why not be an actor? Then you could be any one of these whenever you wanted.

Hmm. I did try for that when I was young but missed out on a great part and went in a different direction.

I would be the equivalent of a Dune "mentat," using thought alone to create and shape realities. The fact I was physically confined in a mental institution would not bother me, since I could manufacture transcorporeal freedom any time I wanted to.
I would be blogging about this (of course) by implanting memories in the subconscious minds of millions of people.

I think this is the beginning of a beautiful story line that you will transform into a multi-billion dollar enterprise. It goes without saying - books, speaking event, and movies, oh yes the movies.

Cramps in the feet and legs symbolize falling victim to an evil attack and being unable to stand, and they symbolize being taken out of the battle in Spiritual Warfare. The person with the cramp cannot stand on the battlefield. A person in the Divine Dynasphere can stand against the devil. Limbs that have cramps are weak and need to be strengthened, corresponding to recovery from reversionism

I would be a... lumberjack!
Leaping from tree to tree as they float down the mighty rivers of British Columbia!
The giant redwood, the larch, the fir, the mighty scots pine!
The smell of fresh-cut timber! The crash of mighty trees!
With my best girlie by my side...
(I would probably have gone into electrical engineering)

Cabinet maker, I love working with wood. In my younger more foolish days I was a house painter and also made lots of furniture before I discovered computers.

Since I started working before computers were personal. I would be in engineering. Yes, you can do engineering without computers, it just takes longer.
