What would you do differently?

Absolutely nothing! I have no regrets, no guilts, no disappointments. I wish everyone the same life I have, or very similar at least.

with love and respect,

If you had your life to live all over again you would live it exactly as you did because you would not have all the experience that you now have.

I would have told Chris O'Brien I loved her when we were in the 4th grade together. <sigh>

Rather than lament about the things we could have or should have done...which is water over the dam for the most part... I say most part
because while we're alive there's always something that we can still do... It seems to me we should celebrate the good things we've done and set about doing what still needs to be done! That's why I am looking for a "round toit" so I can get around to it.

I too think we need to let the past be the past and focus on today. I agree with Arthra and the other posters.

What's the use of wasting precious time moaning about what might have been? All we can do is change the present.

There are a million things that I wish I hadn't done. I say this in the same breath with there are two things that I am very glad that happened.

I would "undo" those million in a heartbeat if I could still have the two things that I have now.

I wish sometimes that I could have undone some of the things that I did, but if the result were to NOT have the two beautiful children that I have I would without a hint of doubt, go through everything that I have experienced all over again.

I'm here to learn, but I may just give you an opinon!

While I have somethings that I regret doing or not doing, I don't think I'd really want to change my life. There are too many things about me that I have struggled to become, and too many things in my current life that I wouldn't give up. By changing even one small thing, I could change the whole course of my life, and may not have the things I have today.
