It's so easy to say "if only...", but we make our choices, and our path moves on from there. I don't regret any of the choices I made, for they put me on the path I'm on now.
I believe that the choices we make and the courses we take are the right ones, regardless of the outcome. I'm not saying none of us make mistakes, I know I certainly do, but I mean the life choices. Everything happens for a reason, to fit into the life plan we chose before coming in.
That kind of describes my philosophy. The way I see it, you do have a fate. However, in that fate, there are many forks in the road. The path you choose, while still being a part of fate is still largely up to you.
Never regret, for everything happens for a reason. I'm not crazy about my choice of marital partners. But without him, I'd never have had my wonderful daughter & adorable grandbabies.
