I've been thinking about a lot of things in the last few weeks & as usual, the regrets come to mind.
Now I've heard several people say they have none. I find that extremely hard to believe, but hey.
I have a few regrets about quite a few things & since y'all are my people I can share it with you. {Can't do FB for reason mentioned in another discussion.}
1. Having sex way too soon & getting knocked up shortly after. No before you burn me at the stake, I don't regret giving life, I do regret indulging in the process long before I should have...if that makes sense.
2. Letting my grandfather take most of his 88 years of knowledge & wisdom to the grave because I was too busy doing me to stop & listen.
3. Not being a tad bit more patient with my long-distance love before giving up. I truly believe he is my soul-mate.
4. Being too busy trying to further career to give my son whatever it was he was missing. I hate that I had to work & couldn't be there for him like my mom & grandparents were for me - 24/7. Funny how now he says, he understands & doesn't blame me. Wow......
5. Not making my BFF go home instead of letting her convince me to attend a party were she was raped (when we were teens).
6. Not telling my mother how sorry I was if my funky attitude towards her male friends caused her any form of loneliness/unhappiness. Ma, I now know better.
7. Not sitting in that kitchen with Muda to learn her trade kitchen secrets. She kept her info in her head, not a book.
8. Hmmmm...guess I don't have 10...and that could be a good thing!
Feel free to comment and/or share.
Toodles!
