Simply put this nurse talked to dying patients and noted the top 5 life time regrets. Pretty morbid, eh? But you know what it puts a lot of things in perspective when you think about it.
I can’t tell you how many times I have looked back on certain past situations where I wished I acted differently. I have lots of regrets but I do not dwell on them.
There have been times where I was a complete bitch. I’ve been manipulative and cunning. I have hurt people. I have held on to anger and grudges.
As I grow older, I try very hard to be a better person. I am letting go. It’s not healthy to keep these wasted energies. No body wins.
I don’t want to be on my death bed with five regrets or 150 regrets. Live your life and be true to yourself and those in your life. Die smiling at a life lived.
