Coming to the final chapter of my life, is there anything upon which I can look back and I say that I regret anything?
Basically, logically usw, no - BECAUSE YOU CANNOT CHANGE ANYTHING NOW; SO WHAT POINT DOES IT SERVE? Away with wishful thinking, accept what happened, happened. So is the history of your life.
One step back from that. My life would have been better if there had been more sex, if there had been job security, if the woman of my dreams had come along when I was younger, if I had been born in Germany or Holland and not the UK, if the Internet had been around 25 years earlier, if I hadn't had the stupid idea of becoming a teacher and wasting 6 years of my life, if there hadn't been so many crap politicians elected to power (particularly Thatcher and Bush junior), if intelligence was appreciated and selling wasn't ..... usw, usw, usw!
What I don't regret - moving to Holland, Germany, working in Paris, finally getting married, and not having kids (far too much like hard work - adults are easier to understand, if not appreciate). And some of the girlfriends (way before I got married - no regrets about them, even if the relationships did not work out long term). I also don't regret my commitments and beliefs either. And I don't regret the fact that I am not going to be round much longer, because the world in 20 years is going to be even worse than it is now (in fact when the Americans elect Romney President, the process of things getting worse will accelerate) !
