Regrets

[unloadonme]

As it happens, I was offered a promotion if I would agree to be relocated to London. It's a bloody awful place and I declined. I've never regretted that decision.

yep, some big decisions people make would end them up in jail. :

That is exactly what I was thinking.

I regret how I treated people in the past, but have tried to make it up to them. And I regret missing out on a few things that come around only once, like being twenty-two. But I don't regret any of my choices. Sure, the minute you buy a sweater at 20% off, it will go on sale for 50% off tomorrow... but that's no reason not to get the sweater.

I always wanted to study graphic design or video game design. Or something related to languages. I ended up studying marketing research and I absolutely hate it, it's definitely NOT what I want to do for the rest of my life. Oh, well, I'm 22. I can work and study a second career at the same time.

I have no regrets, except maybe the 80s. If you had seen my hair back then you'd understand. Thankfully the only pictures that remain of that time are safely locked away in my private vault.

The one regret I've had so far is coming out to my mother 5 years ago...it still troubles me deeply.

would be good to hear if it still troubles you.

Sadder but wiser?

The past is gone, the future is always uncertain but the present is ours to play with.

I've I always liked that, the way I heard it was "Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift, that's why it's called the present." Just a nice little way of saying don't worry just get things done and move on.

I went to the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, and I was there 1966 to 1969. Those of you who remember social history in the U.S. during the height of the War in Viet Nam, know that the disruptions and protests were massive. AND, Ann Arbor was the most active place for protest east of California.

I was there right in the dead center of it, and I ignored it all. I couldn't count how many times I walked to one of my classes, and had to "walk through a big protest rally on The Diag" to get to my class.

I've sometimes regretted that I just ignored it all, and have thought that I wished I had been drawn into it all.

BUT...would that have necessarily been a good thing? I'll never know. Would I have fallen into big time drug habits and abused drugs to my detriment or my death? Would I have ever ended up with self-employment in a job that I created myself out of thin air?

Would I have ended up in some place like Berkeley, and "played around" with the wrong people too carelessly and end up with AIDS?

I'm pleased with where I am now, so I realized that any regrets about this were pointless and futile.

High school i wish i took it more seriously instead of being the class clown and made real friends that likes me for who i am instead of being friends with fake people who just liked me because i was the class clown now few years after high school i have absolutely no friends. I am young and i feel like a old man

Not going to college after high school instead i fucked around and work off and on at dead end jobs. If i went to college after high school i could of been graduating.

 

[freefall]

I regret regretting things. That's the only regret I have now.

 

[looseliam]

Regrets, I've had a few. But then again, too few to mention.

The sum of all my choices makes me who I am today.

Were I to do it all over again, I do it the same.

 

[alexander IV]

Regrets few: yesterday with all of its faults and blunders beyond my control now, tomorrow with its promises and concerns beyond my control; relishing the joys and opportunities that are presented to me today - which I can control.
