Weirdly whenever something fairly majorly bad has happened to me/us, it's normally been for a reason.
Life seems to take its time to get it's shit in order.
Eg. Lost job, but after a period of major uncertainty, better job came along that wouldn't have been available at the time of originally job hunting.
Loads of stuff. It's really odd. Husband never used to believe me but after 12 years together he's seen it happen to us time and time again.
So whenever bad stuff happens we sit and wait to see what good things happen.
So I don't regret anything. Otherwise who knows what friends I have now I never would've met. Or I might not have met my husband. Etc.
Life happens. We're just along for the ride |

As I said on another thread the other day - my journey through life and the mistakes I've made, the lessons I've learned, and the successes I've achieved have made me what I am today. So I'm kind of happy where I am.
But would i like to be 'young' again and reclaim 20 years of my life? Yep! Of course.
Would I do things differently with the benefit of hindsight? Yep - probably.
Will it ever happen? No. So I'm not going to stress over it or the mistakes I've made. I can't change the past but can influence the future!

"Live my life again.
I would change so many things.
Would You? If so, what would you change?"
My underwear. It's getting a little ripe now.
In all seriousness though, I'm sure I'd change many things if I could live my life over. Hindsight is a wonderful thing. However, we can't change any of it though, so it's best not to dwell on it too much.
I've found a lot of the important things that I wished I'd done or done differently I can do now though. While ever I'm still breathing there's hope. I'm a firm believer that past mistakes can be rectified. Learn from your mistakes and make yourself a better future. |

Wouldn't have listened to people who had me believe in 2007 that the property bubble would never burst. Lost a lot of money on that and the girl was never to be seen again...ah well onwards and upwards.

Life is life, who says if we/I went back and changed some of those things that didn't go quite as well as we might of hoped that life then/now would be better..
Life has made us/me who we are today
It's about choices from here on!
Mr
PS.. Hugs and Happy Fabbing to all. |

Plenty I would like to change and have done differently, but given the opportunity to (if it were possible of course) I wouldn't, as everything that has happened has ultimately led me to this point in my life and I wouldn't change that for anything |
