I wish I had thanked my parents more frequently, before they died, for the wonderful way they raised me & my siblings without much of the modern gadgetry we now take for granted.

Teardrops for Julie......but changes are made everyday and tomorrow may see a breakthrough,,,,,,xxx,



I dont have any regrets as other paths may not have landed me where I am today.......I often go over what ifs but its only fleeting......

I' d like to thank everyone for their replies. I'm sure a psychologist would have a field day with them but I must admit that most people seem quite happy with their lot and don't have huge regrets? Mind you there a number that I can sympathize with.
Once again thanks for your replies.

That I had died before oh and not being able to say, see you can't take it with you. .( watches the pennies to the extreme he does) :-P

As i have terminal cancer i fine this quite easy to answer...it would be not seeing my children grow up

Not a regret, just a "wish i had" gone to medical school and become a doctor, i love my job as a sister, but wish i had been that little bit more :-)

nice one Errol!!!

adding to this thread instead of doing something important lol

not becoming a journalist - which I always wanted to be :-(

but having said that, all in all I've been lucky in life - super Mum and Dad, lovely husband, sadly no longer with me, lovely son and great daughter in law and good friends - oh, and good health which is most important

No! I don't feel sorry about anything, not the good things people have done to me, not the bad things, it's all the same to me.

No, I have no regrets.

not telling my mother-in-law what an absolute bitch she was, and my father-in-law what a big brute and bully he was!!!! not just to me, but to his own children

No regrets apart from not living longer

@Porkie Pie - Roy.

Sorry you have misunderstood the point of what I posted. I suppose what I said didn't quite link in with your reply to the question of the O.P. But I can only repeat that my regret will be now and at my moment of death the answer I gave above.

not discovering who the RRer is :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Joeva, I don't understand your post ref my post above may be you could explain?

Roy

Hey Rambling Rose and Uzzie , I agree , so what is it that stops us now - is it the fact that the people we would like to tell these truths to are so important to us that we don't want to hurt them or we don't want to be regarded as ogres. I would much prefer the hear a truthful opinion from someone that knows me than a load of lies just because they think that is something I want to hear.

Not telling some people exactly what I thought of them ( good and bad!)

getting credit cards and using them to the max.

telling people exactly what I think

@ PorkiePie

Not quite everything but something that may have in some way avoided tragic circumstances because I didn't want it to look that I was 'poking my nose in'.
This will never, ever hold me back in future from voicing my thoughts in situations that I feel need intervention rightly or wrongly - I would rather be un popular than stand aside and do nothing.

Unfortunately I am that ' what if type' big time. :-(

i would have no regrets better to like a lion for one day
that a live like a mouse for a lifetime :-D :-D
