NO REGERTS
This is the third cast that I have listened to. I usually watch and listen to her, when doing repairs, and rants. But I was looking through different channels I sub to. I clicked on her channel and began to see what I have missed. (I only sub to several hundred, several times over, channels. I have a wide array of interests, and I sub to quite a few dead, or ones that have a wide gap between them being updated. So if they have an update, even if it’s been a few years. I can know.) but I began to watch or more accurately, listening to a few of these, and I didn’t get what I was looking for, but I found something, that I needed.
Thanks, for the story and the insight, not only into you, but also for the insight, into myself. I need this sometimes.
Thank you Fran. I'm trying to move forward and this helps.
I have no regerts
Wishing we can change the past is not the definition for the word regret, though people with regret often wish they could. We grow through trial and tribulation and these things come with regret. Do we grow through them and beyond them or do we perpetually wallow in the past? It's our choice but to live a life that has never known regret is to have not lived if you ask me. Regrets… It's what we do with them and those who've never had any should regret all the lost opportunities for growth that they missed out on. That's my 2 cents! 🌈💕💖🌈
I don't remember when, but long ago I realized that I was the result of what I'd been, and that I like who I am. It's been a source of serenity through the years.
In my 5 decades of off-and-on talk therapy, this one differentiation, regrets vs. remorse, had never been clarified in my lead-addled autistic mind- so I was always stuck in the former, in the past. This one brief Francast has freed me from that state of non-being. I'm so happy to support you! ❤
Thanks, Fran. What you said is very true. I have to say, though that as much as I appreciate who I am now, I am not the person that I hoped to be. So, that will require some more work to decide if, at the ageof 68, I want to try to change anything or just be who I am.
This is beautiful. Yeah, I had to make some difficult choices in life and it wasn't all sunshine and roses getting here. But I found truth and I learned so much about myself. And when I think of how it would have gone if I'd made different choices, I can see a million ways I'd have joined the 27 or 35 club. I'm 39 now because I did what I had to do, because I put up with a path that while not easy, probably saved my life.
I enjoy this talk of yours very much. I have similar views on this kind of thing.
Interesting timing, given I had my 3rd rejection on getting a 2nd GRS today.
thxs fran!
Very wise words. While we tend to regret the road not taken that could have resulted in a better outcome, we tend to ignore the paths that we could have followed that would have made our present lives worse than they are.
The only regret that I have about my transition is that I wish I had started it 25 years ago, 🙂
I did it myyyyyy wayyuyyy…
We all make mistakes in life, this is how we learn the hard way.
As Frank Sinatra sang "Regrets i have a few" this is a very wise statement and must apply
to most people.
We can look back on life and memory allowing can soon remember the regrets that will haunt us
for ever.
I used to be filled with regrets about past choices and break ups; until my son was born. It was then I realized how every decision, every missed opportunity and every failed relationship all played its part in bringing me to the point where he could be born. It made it all worthwhile and I can't hold those past regrets anymore.
