Dreamer, that's the saddest thing I ever heard. You broke my heart. Have you thought about therapy? It may help you deal with your feelings.

Goodness this question really had me stop and think!! I have had some really (interesting) life experiences and my choices at times were perhaps questionable (I know my parents thought so) but when it comes right down to it I am here today the product of my life experiences and I am GOOD! I have a great DH, it took more than one try to find him, we will never been money rich, but we are comfortable and loved and what more is there?

Theres so many thing that happen to us during our path that make us who we are to change that well gosh, I kinda like me. Would things have turned out better? I see people that seem to be having an ideal life and then once you get to know them they too have simular problems or worse ones. So I guess I'd change something small, I would have never started dying and bleacing my hair, boy is it a pain to get it back to its natural state!

I don't know what I would change that wouldn't effect my life now. If I had said no to my daughter 7 years ago when she wanted to move away, I wouldn't have the beautiful granddaughter that I have now. If I had insisted that my son to stay in school and not get married at 17 I wouldn't have the 3 grandchildren he and his wife of 15 years have provided for me. Maybe the one do over I would do is turn to God more than I have in the past.

I wouldn't change a thing, not one thing, no matter how good, or bad, because if I hadn't done this, that wouldn't have happened, or if I did do that, that would have happened. I have gone through two bouts of cancer with my husband and there isn't a thing I would have done different. If I had, maybe I wouldn't have him today, or yesterday or tomorrow.

God gives us our day to do as we will and we cannot look back and expect that it would be better or worse. We do each day as it comes and make sure the Devil takes the high road.

Marrying DH. I'd've done it sooner.

Be more daring and not take life so seriously.
