THE TOP 37 THINGS PEOPLE REGRET DOING BEFORE DYING

I came upon this list this morning of the top 37 things that people regret doing before they die. I have knocked many off my list. Have you? Which ones? I went back to grad school in my forties got my Master's Degree and became a school principal. I let go of a couple of toxic relationships. What have you done?

I read somewhere that most people regret things they did not do, rather than things they did.

As long as I'm alive I think I will still be able to do whatever I want. The title of this confuses me. Did they talk to people who were already dead and ask ""What do you regret not doing before you died?""cause until you are dead you've still got a chance.

That is a pretty good list. I concur on the one about teeth.

Really? Have you visited any nursing homes lately?

Another stupid list.

""Never mastering one awesome party trick."" Seriously?

""Never performing in front of others."" Done it. Don't think it added one iota to my life.

""Getting caught up in needless drama."" Isn't that was Viewpoints is all about?
