My mom taught me to never look back, to never regret anything in live - as it had meaning at that time. So I don't do it, as it would surely make me feel bad about a thing I cannot change anyway. I prefer to look in front of me and enjoy the day :-)and ...non, je ne regret rien as Edith Piaf sings it so wonderfully.

I do admire people such as you who can honestly say they have no regrets. In general it's what I've tried to strive for as well. It's just that in the past couple of years, for some reason, it's been very hard not to question several of the life decisions I've made. Finally facing up to those questions this year has, for me, been very productive. I think. :)
