Just wondering? Someone once told me that the things you will regret in life are the things you don't do or chances you don't take. Now at 57, I find this to be true! I have always been one to listen to advice from my elders and not one that has to touch the fire to believe that it's hot! Now I somtimes wonder if by always playing it safe I've missed something. I went from high school to nursing school(lived at home) and married my high school sweetheart at 20. When my sons were young, I went back to school to teach which is what I do now. I have a great marraige(37 years) and two wonderful grown sons. I'm happy most of the time but sometimes I just feel like something is missing. My biggest regret is that I didn't have more children. DH and I wanted six but quickly realized at the time that we just could not afford it! Now, when we can afford it mother nature wouldn't allow it. Not that we want that at our age! Just wondering if anyone eles has any big regrets that weigh on them from time to time?
