I often look back and wonder if I had only done things differently, how would things be today? If only I would have open up more in school, or not rushed into marriage to someone I hardly knew. Or if I hadn't broken up with the guy that I knew longer than the guy I married! Now, I'm alone with Teddy, my Ginger cat. My son moved out about 2 years ago with his girlfriend. And friends and family who have passed away, I wish I could have spent more time with them.
Three amazing books there you recommended-- especially The Nightingale. Beautiful. I can totally relate to this post and I think the fact that we are all experiencing similar life experiences, goes to show-- we are not alone. Thank you for helping me realize that... even when I feel so alone all the time through my grief. Even if I'm going through it with my husband, his looks different than mine. We may feel differently, doesn't mean we are alone. Thank you. ❤️💖❤️
Boy, could I relate. Recently, I lost a very close cousin. She was my age, and we only saw each other every few years as we live in different states. The last time I saw her, she wasn’t doing well, but she was very optimistic and enjoying her life, the first thing I thought when I found out she passed away was I should’ve called her more often. I should’ve been there for her. I hate regrets like that because there really isn’t anything I can do about it now.
Although, it did make me realize that my busyness has kept me away from staying in touch and caring about my loved ones. So there’s that.
I'm so sorry for your loss dear Kathleen 🙏😞 Regret is the hardest thing to tackle because it's all mental and present in the body. Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable here 💞 we can only focus on mending what can be mended and laying new, stronger, better foundations of love 💜☀️

Oh regret, my old companion. 🥲
