Looking back on my life it is easy to see the things that I wished I had done differently. I have made so many bad choices and missteps that I sometimes wonder if I had chosen a different path what my life would have looked like. Would I have been happier, more financially secure or would I have ended up exactly where I am now.
Looking back on my life I can pinpoint a pivotal decision I made that changed the road that I would travel. We all have faced a crossroad where we had to make a choice, and no matter what choice we made we wonder if it was the right one.
Someone that I loved would on occasions express to me how he regretted the bad choices he made in this life. When I spoke to him near the end of his life he still had not forgiven himself for the choices and missteps that lead him down a path that he later regretted.
If I could speak to him now, I would tell him that we all have things in our past that we wished we had done differently. I wish I had told him that he was so much more than the bad choices made.
I would love to hear about what you would have done differently and whether or not you have forgiven yourself for the choices that you have made?

I don't believe that I would have changed any of the decisions I have made. I truly believe that you finally end up where you belong. Your journey may curve and swoop along the way but ultimately you land safe. 😎
So many things I would have done differently. As for forgiveness, yes, I think so. But as for wishing I could travel back and take the other fork in the road, I find that I look back more often...
