You know, the more I think about it, the more I like my own life. I don't regret big mistakes in this, my present life just stupid things-details, so those things I won't repeat (like dating this loser when I was 15 and for just two weeks? yeah what was that?) I would choose the good people I now know to be close to me and the people that's being weird and harmful will be out! that will be awesome ah! Ah, and I will plan my wedding a year in advance this time! Is a tough one, is like the question: If you had only 24 hours to live, what would you do?, or the- If the whole world were listening, what would you say? One of our Young women ask me that... Not the best answer, but you got me thinking and thinking and thinking about it. I looooove the new template.
Hi Tania. Thanks for the comment and compliment on my new background. :)
I actually stole this question from a friend's blog because after reading people's comments, I could relate to some of the regrets.
I, like Kathy, wish that I could've been more kind and not so mean to some people even if they deserved some sort of retaliation. I cringe at some of the mean things I've been a part of...even if it was well over 15 years ago or more. So being kinder would definitely be a big one for me.
I also wished that I had not played that soccer game my senior year where I messed my knee up and the rest of my senior year...which then largely affected my plans for college and so on because of a harsh recovery.
Excellent post question. I hate to think about it, regrets, I think I have finally accepted how I have choosen to live my life so far and I try to not think of some things I'm not proud of.
Most of my regrets were in high school. My regrets were not usually things that I did do, but things I did NOT do. I was too careful with who I let myself be that I didn't let myself really live. I wish that I would have taken more control over my life. I wish that I would have let myself enjoy life more. I had fun with my own circle of friends, but I didn't branch off as much as I should and get to know more of the good people that were in my very big high school.
"Regrets aren’t usually the things you did, but the things you didn’t do."- Quote by me b/c I can't find the author anywhere lol.
I wish I had the hindsight back then that I have now as an adult. But then again, I have learned so much from my past, good and bad. It has made me who I am.
In the meantime, I find it interesting when people say they would change nothing because all of their experiences, good and bad, have shaped who they are today.
That may be true.
But couldn't you have changed something to make yourself a little better? Isn't there room for improvement?
I can think of many people I wasn't very nice to and going back to be nice to them could only make me a better person.

i would be more kind.
I wouldn't let fear rule any of my decisions. other than that, I'm good.
O.M.G. I am responding to your comment ASAP!
