Boy oh boy I sure wish I could go backward in life and do things differently. I feel like I have a LOT of regrets. Things I could have done differently. Some people I talk to in life say.. ah no, I don't wanna go backwards. But I do!
Ok so I know that God has things good and bad happen. He puts bad things in our lap because they help us grow and he knows we can handle them.
I'd take back calling in sick so many times within 1 month to my nanny job. That job was great for me and I would've earned a boat load of money.
I'd take back yelling at my mom several Christmas before.
I'd take back cheating on my now ex-boyfriend.
I'd take back stopping taking my meds.
So there are quite a bit of things. But I'm wise enough to see that each of these regrets got me where I need to be.
They teach in AA to let go and let God. They want us to make amends with those we have resentments with. But what about a step to help us work on regrets?
I could use to work on that area of my life.
what do you regret? Do you regret nothing in life or just the opposite?

I think that it is good to go back and reflect but only if it helps you move on. Too much reflection on the past may just hold you back. In the time that I have known you I believe that you have grown in leaps and bounds... so hip hip hooray. Did you have your slip ups and regressions.. sure.. but luck where you are know! SOBER SMOKE-FREE MARRIED HAPPY. If you were going to back... how do you know where to stop?
