Kevin T Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 ...Would you have any regrets? I'm sure most people have things they regret, but if you knew you were going to expire (evidentally people are medicine now) tomorrow, is there anything you'd have wished you did differently? If so, what was it? And if not, then what would you be most proud of, leaving behind? Kind of a pensive topic, but I'm curious. Link to comment
lonestar_80 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Live Long Live Strong! I hope that I will not die anytime soon. I guess the only thing that I wish I could have done, is to be more open and show people how much I cared for them. I look forward to the furture and I only pray that the best will come to my life. I am putting all the bad things behind me and looking forward. Link to comment

Day_Walker Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I would not regret anything because there is no sense in living with what might/would have been. If I knew for sure that I was going to die then I would want to pick the way I died. Link to comment

AnotherBrokenDoll Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I'd regret the fact that i never had the guts to contact my "father". That i didn't treat my family the way i should have. That i wasn't the best person i could have been. That i didn't change anything in this world. I have lots of regrets... Link to comment
apparentlynotalone Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Not saying goodbye to my father properly. Link to comment
yeawutever Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Nope I would have no regrets at all. Well the only regret would be on not beating the hell up out of kids that used to tease me everyday from elementary to my middle school years (luckily it stopped once I was in high school). Yes I know violence is not always the answer but if I would have done it, they would have stopped teasing me, that's for sure. Link to comment
applepie Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I'd regret: -being shy -allowing people to take advantage of me -letting my parents spend so much money on me -letting my dad make me feel sorry for him There are so many more that I can't put in to words right now. Link to comment
dogheadma Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 There might be a few things I wish had gone slightly differently, but not enough to be actually concerned with. I'm a good person, I live my life honestly and well and I don't believe in regret. Link to comment

rosie76 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Proudest of: really appreciating other people, and treating those I'm close to with real reverence. Regrets: Letting my lack of confidence/childishness/laziness rather than the above define too much about how I live. Link to comment
Sam _ Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Live Long Live Strong! I hope that I will not die anytime soon. I guess the only thing that I wish I could have done, is to be more open and show people how much I cared for them. I look forward to the furture and I only pray that the best will come to my life. I am putting all the bad things behind me and looking forward. Same with me. I used to be very closed to all of my friends, never opening up to them because of something that caused a lot of trauma in my life (my GF killed herself. For 4 years I was in depression because of it). Less than 6 months ago I came out of depression and realized the people I have. How blessed I am to have my friends (and still have them even though I never really spoke to them in 4 years). I am in my first relationship since 'it' happened and loving every second of it. I don't see the point in regretting what happened in my past because maybe if certain things didn't happen (even if just one thing didn't happen) I wouldn't have anything or anyone that I have now. I don't live life by a strict rule book anymore. I'm not afraid of failing, I take chances. I live how I want to live, life is too short. This is my life, my story and I'm not going to let anyone or anything write a word of it for me. I'm sorry for my rambling. I only regret not being open with the people that cared about me, despite how much I trusted them. I wouldn't change anything though. My past has made me who I am today. If I could wish something to happen differently (and still have what I do today), I would wish that my last GF didn't kill herself. But we broke up and stayed close friends. All I want to do before I die is let my friends know how much I appreciate, love, and respect them; And how much they mean to me. Link to comment

Dako Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I regret not telling my late father some things, but I'm not making that mistake with my mother. Other than that, I'm good to go. Link to comment
JulieW Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 For the last few years, I've made a concerted effort to only do the things that I enjoy. I only have one regret in my life and that is from years ago. One day I'll be over that, but as of now...I know that the people that mean a great deal to me, are very aware of how I feel about them. I won't have someone that I love, not know it. Link to comment
