Anything I regret is nothing I can change. Mostly related to not spending enough time with my now-deceased parents. My parents always seemed annoyed with me and very judgmental and so it seemed easier to visit when it was time to fulfill obligations rather than just spend time with them. Sorry now I didn’t try harder to be a good friend to them.
I have done my best to see parts of the world that interest me and enjoy this snapshot of life on earth offered to me. I’ve done my best as a partner and parent. I can leave this world tomorrow unburdened with the weight of leaving any doors closed that I wish I’d opened.
My fear would be in that last instant/fraction of a second what if there WAS in fact, something you regretted? Way too late to change.
The value in this type of question is not the inane "you'd be dead" responses but rather the "Hmmmm. Maybe I will take that trip to DisneyLand next year."
Post 92, brought to mind Glen Campbell's song, You're Got to Try a Little Kindness
It's on YouTube,..... lyrics, You've got to show a little kindness, if you show a little kindness
The you'll overlook the blindness of the narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets.
A hand up I was given to me, when I "hit bottom" so grateful, Try to pass on the to those needing a hand up,
If my husband and I went together right now, my regret would be that we left too much work for our children to go through to close/sell our business. I've never wanted to impose on our kids. Hoping to get things more in order this year.
But as for other regrets? We talked about this last night, we don't really have any, we've had a nice simple life with great families. But we would like more time with them.
It could be that some people are just interested in answering the original question, and don't really care to read the opinions of the previous 24.
Well, this isn't really the kind of thread where most people (including me) want to labor through 10 pages.
