That is really nice to see your post back and as always there are a lot of thoughts that everyone might have had on certain time of our live. When we got older we look at our life and our past with another point and always find something that we could have done differently. Have you notice that then you tell yourself, that the next time you definitely make it better.
For us, it is when we observe our 19 y.o. son we can see that there are many things he could benefit if he would have listened to us, but as always kids in this age they know it better.
As to now and future, yes, we need to enjoy today because what if tomorrow never comes?
I have a saying that "only a fool makes the same mistake twice". Sometimes, I am a fool but I do my best not to be! There are so many things that I look back upon and think "I wish I had done.... instead of..." - I wish I didn't think like this as it usually revolves around a bad moment and the next thing I know, it's consumed my thinking and made me miserable!
Imagine how wise we'd all be today if we learnt from the mistakes of our parents. I suppose it's in our nature to want to make our own mistakes, as hard as it is to watch sometimes. How to get kids to listen and learn from us is one of life's great mysteries!
Thank you for the booming nomination 👍
