30 years ago when I was in my twenties, I regret a lot of things I didn't do or that happened to me. If I was back there again I hope I'd do things differently.

Ticked most of those boxes.....but have never really thought I'd wasted time 

people always regret things they didnt do-its not about what you did, its about what you didnt do

i think ive put a good topic/thread up

well, considering its me

back ina bit, blondies in my earphones

I'm an expert. 

But arent we the sum of our experiences? We learn by making mistakes, they teach us our values.

Having said that, yes!

nice theory

might work for some..not all

youre an expert at the fast reply lol

sorry i meant the fastest and funniest reply

you always make me laugh

Yep.

 

Make it years.

oh shut up-youre lovely

youre valuable cos you make us laugh

Thing is, I think I know where Donks is coming from 

I've made big changes ( and on the verge of another one! ) but never really thought it wasted time.. only wasted if you don't learn from it I think.

This  i think i had my child too early and missed out on alot of thing's you do when your young but i don't regret her just feel i missed out 

I learned, I just can't go back and make things different 

I come on here for a bit of light relief TBH ...................................OMG - there are just so many things I could/should have done and I really have wasted my talents/training. On the plus side I've been there for my kids and not absorbed in a career ..............I absolutely adore being here for my grand sons.

 

In the grand scale of things I know I could have had/done more ...........in reality - I love my life - I love my family. It's the route you choose isn't it? I have no regrets TBH............................life is as it is.

 

Very thought provoking thread Pirate 

Edit. I should have said I was in a different position then and feel I can cope with things a bit better now 

im hopeless never learn, never went to school etc..

i trust people

they end up

1-robbing me

2- using me

3 -taking me for a tw*t

 

i should be more hard on people

i cant lol

Oh blimey Pirate! That's one thing I can say.......it takes a lot to gain my trust, but once it's there it's normally there for good untill someone double crosses me. 

But .....................you're aware of it. It's never too late you know.

 

And .....................you have saved your greyhounds from a shit life . I know that they love you.

sorry sooz

i was having a moment of thinking

dont happen very often lol

i got blondie in my ears

my world is good

and i hope yours is

things are cool in pirate land

ive learnt to deal with her kids lol

Nah, tis a good fred  like Soozy says - thought provoking

i think im off to bed

gonna watch 'scared shrekless' again

i love cartoons

Nanight 

Yes & no.. I should have dumped someone much much sooner.. I should have spent more time with a lost loved one before they passed.. I should have spoken up sooner about many things.. I'm a firm believer in "everything happens for a reason, and at the right time etc" so no regrets, only lessons Oh, apart from a couple of terrible films I've wasted time watching of course!

That's it though,it's not wasted time. Loads of things I would do differently if I had to do them again, but I only know that from having made the mistakes in the first place!  

I am very aware that I spend far too much time on here - whether it's wasted or not is debatable  - that's life.

It's a good use of time on here Soozy!  

Yes, and that's all you're getting 

Aww, thank you pirate.

 

The feeling's mutual. 

Just got the letter through to register for voting.

Been wasting my time filling that out for a number of years now

Somewhere near Aberdeen....I think.

They (whoever they are) say that you should study history to avoid it happening again. However it's more profitable to plan ahead IMO, one can't change the past.
