Interesting that you posted this today, because lately I've been thinking about my current age (62) and the regrets I *don't* want to have when I die. So, am I allowed to just forget about any past regrets, but shine some awareness on future regrets I'm not willing to accept?
Those would be things like:
--I don't want to regret accommodating my life to alcohol
--I don't want to regret letting my attachments buy my future freedom (I am reluctant to sell my current house for sentimental reasons--even though economically, selling makes the most sense, and I know I would have a far more adventurous life without the ball and chain of this mortgage)
--I don't want to regret not giving my all to the "me" I think I can be
The past is the past and I don't regret anything. But I only have a limited number of years left to be sure my life is well lived. I don't want to get to the end and regret any unfinished business.
