What one thing have you not done that you really want to do? What’s holding you back?
I think that everybody can think of several of the biggest regrets in life. The great thing is that life isn’t over and there is time remaining to do all of the things that I want to do. Here are a few of the things that I have never done, but want to before the clock of life runs out and what is holding me back, I know the question was for one but I just can’t seem to stop there.
Play Guitar
The first thing I have always wanted to do is to play the guitar and sing a song. I have always felt that I wanted to do this. Probably most people who sing in the shower or sing in the car feel this way. What is holding me back is that I don’t know how to play the guitar, I don’t have a guitar, I think I need someone to show me. I did do a little practicing and learned a couple of chords in the past, but never gained the understanding of how to play a song. Now it seems like a cop out that I never learned because I don’t even want to sing in front of anybody, just to be able to sing a song.
European Vacation
Secondly, I have always wanted to go to Europe, because I think that it would be neat to visit all of the historic places and experience other cultures. I know that England and Germany are my top choices of countries to visit because I have significant ancestry in both, and I have to say that I like the way the Germans do things. Time and money are holding me back obviously, or I would be on a plane today somewhere.
Travel is probably on the wish list of millions and those that follow through and travel to places they desire to see should be congratulated. Hopefully, I will have time to visit all the places I have dreamed of and meet all the people who live there.
I Am Sorry
Thirdly, I would like to tell all of the people who I have let down or hurt in
any way that I am sorry for any pain I have caused them. This is involving all of three or four people, other than that I don’t think I owe an apology to anyone about anything I have ever done.
We all live life the best we can at the time, I was never perfect nor am I now. I don’t apologize for being me, to be me originally and completely is a great blessing, but if feelings were hurt because of my not so thoughtful behavior, I am sorry for that.
Marriage, Really?
Fourth, I have always wondered what it would be like to be in a relationship that ended up in a happy marriage. I don’t blame anyone for this not happening other than myself, but just always wondered what that would have been like. The reasons it never happened were because of my own selfishness and insecurities so again I don’t blame anyone for this but have always been curious about the life of the married.
There are no Regrets
None of these things should be viewed as regrets because I don’t believe in them. The past is what it is and things happened and that is that. There is nothing you can do about it now except learn from it and other than that, every action that didn’t work, every perceived mistake have all blended together to bring me to this point in my life, of which I am happy to be experiencing.
Most often even the worst of circumstances lead you to a place that you would never have reached without that experience. There are bigger factors than you running this game. I will play the guitar and sing my song if that is in the cards for me, and I will visit Europe and enjoy the wonders of England and Germany. There are no limits on what can happen to anybody in this life.
No REGRETS MY FRIENDS no point in cryin’ over yesterday:
