  1. I have zero regrets. So far I have lived a life of travel, and adventure, because I did the unexpected and joined the U.S. Marine Corps. I didn’t listen to the naysayers. I served for 22 years. Iraq, Afghanistan, Japan, the Philippines, Thailand, Uzbekistan, Sri Lanka. Worked at AmazonHQ1. Raised two children. Married 31 years. The Vision Quest in the service of others, first, continues! 😊

    The Road Not Taken
    BY ROBERT FROST
    Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
    And sorry I could not travel both
    And be one traveler, long I stood
    And looked down one as far as I could
    To where it bent in the undergrowth;

    Then took the other, as just as fair,
    And having perhaps the better claim,
    Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
    Though as for that the passing there
    Had worn them really about the same,

    And both that morning equally lay
    In leaves no step had trodden black.
    Oh, I kept the first for another day!
    Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
    I doubted if I should ever come back.

    I shall be telling this with a sigh
    Somewhere ages and ages hence:
    Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
    I took the one less traveled by,
    And that has made all the difference.

  2. Working too much – Like there's an option. Lol. This is America – where we use people until they die and barely do anything for them while they live.

  3. Don't worry.
    when you are dead you will simply go back to the place you were before you were born. The great big void of nothing. no memories of no thing. You're not that important in the universe or to the universe.

  8. I have many regrets. Nearly all of them are the result of capitulating to fear. It was my subservience to the fear of failure that dissuaded me from choosing a career that I was passionate about, and instead, settling for what is safe and practical. It was my fear of rejection that prevented me from expressing my fondness for several women who interested me, thus causing my prolonged singlehood and loneliness. Paul Atreides states in Dune: "Fear is the mind killer". That dictum is applicable to my life. Fear was not only the killer of my mind, but the killer of my potential. My biggest regret is that I have allowed fear to be my master.

  11. There are so many things you can be regretful for when you are older. I am a 69 year old woman who lived a relatively normal life. Even so, now and then regrets come up about things you have said or done that you regret. Sometimes you think about things that didn’t seem like a big deal at the time but now you could wish you could go back and change it. On the other hand, I believe that when you get older, you do gain wisdom, and you are able to emphasize with people much easier.
