Your Biggest Regret So Far In Life
The question is simple: What your biggest regret so far in life?
It could be anything. It could be something you did or didn't do. For me, so far, it'd have to be turning down an opportunity to go to a World Series game. Second biggest would be not appreciating my family more when I was younger. |

Being incredibly self conscious for no reason is definitely up there. Low confidence as a kid is definitely something I look back on and I hate. Worrying too much about what others think. Otherwise I’m not sure. I regretted leaving a good job in 2016, but seeing where I’m at now, maybe it was worth it.

This. I don't know where it came from, but was a big hurdle in life until my late 20's. On the other hand, I wouldn't change anything. All of that has made me the man I am. I really don't have many regerts, at least that's what I tell my self.

I guess my biggest regret - one that broke my old man's heart - was that he got ma an appointment to the Air Force Academy and I turned it down. Dumbass kid. Volunteered for the Army and went to Viet Nam as an Infantryman.
Finally went to College - but re-enlisted and they sent me to school. After that, spent the next 21 years in the Army. But yeah, I always felt bad about that...The Old Man wanted me to be an Officer like him - but I became a Warrant Officer instead... |

I wish I would have tried harder in school and had a better college plan.
My mom passed away unexpectedly in October and i’m still having panic attacks at nights sometimes. She wanted me to help haul some plants with her that day and I took a nap and procrastinated it. I got woken up from the nap by a message to haul ass to the hospital but it was too late. She was 62 and in good health. Regret not being there sooner. Not that I could have prevented it, but who knows. |

I got home at about 2AM - got picked up at the Airport and my Brother tells me that Dad looked as though he would be OK - but my Mother had been in a automobile accident on the way to the hospital (T-Boned by a drunk) and killed. I was in a state of utter shock throughout the funeral and for the next week or so...I kept thinking that I was dreaming..just didn't seem real. Two weeks later, my Father died. Needless to say, it was a rough couple of weeks..... |
