NO REGRETs, ONE THING...

[Stilllearning2b]

I don’t regret the choices I have made. I don’t have time to live in the past with regrets. But I am also realistic that there are things that I just won’t be able to accomplish starting now; for various reasons. Maybe in the future, who knows.

So. I ask... what is ONE thing who would have liked to have done or accomplish. Not so much regretting that you haven’t.

I wish I would have learned how to dance. Like really dance. Ballroom, salsa, etc..

 

[Orchidea73]

Learn French and Russian. I'm thinking of starting with French now.

I should have done blow with Kim Deal when I had the chance.

 

[LikeableMe]

I’ve wanted to learn sign language since I was 5. I started to, and I may take it up again.

 

[Deacon_Voss]

I wish I'd have learned glass blowing back in Michigan when I had the chance.

 

[JustAnotherFlower]

I wish I had studied abroad in Ireland when I had the opportunity.

 

[Eisranac]

I would like to have traveled even more before this pandemic.

My daughter knows it. I love watching her and my daughter in law (who also knows it) talk i have a video of her signing Christmas songs that always makes me smile.

I wish I'd have gone to school for psychology

And kept up with a friend trying to teach me Italian. Spanish also. I only know the naughty words.

When we were expecting our last child, I had an overwhelming desire to learn ASL. I really thought they would be born death. But they hear just fine and the desire faded.

 

[Acktion]

I wish I'd gone for the better-paid option rather than service-oriented.

 

[sneb]

Always wanted to major in pure mathematics. As an engineer it is a cruel reminder of what I have not done. I can still attempt it along with my current work.

Let us see, it is never too late.

 

[Corbal]

Soccer.

I had a full ride offer to a D1 university and threw it away. Dumbest shit I've ever done, honestly.

 

[Dardesstra]

Finished college. I only attended UTA so my parents wouldn't make me move out of state with them. I'd already met the man I loved and would spend the next 25 years with. We weren't married or living together yet and my parents gave me the choice of moving across the country with them or staying in Texas in a UTA owned apartment and attending classes, even though I told them I had no real interest in college at the time. I dropped out after a year and a half, and went to secretarial school, getting married on my 21st birthday. We had a good life together. But now he's gone and I think college classes might have been fun. Thinking about auditing a psychology course or two since everything's online now...

 

[J_Bone]

Wish I had taken school more seriously in undergrad, gotten out quicker, then gone to law school.

 

[hotoldrguy]

I wish I’d learned Spanish. I took French all through school but I don’t use it. I think if I’d concentrated on Spanish, I would have used it more.

I also should have learned an instrument— guitar or piano, preferably.

Who knows, maybe I still will.

We seem to be on the same wavelength. I took German but Spanish is the language to know nowadays.
Wanted to learn piano and guitar. Tried both briefly and wish I had stuck to it.

 

[beachbaby179]

I have a few, and I mostly keep them to myself. But one...I wish I would've kept playing piano. I stopped in my early teens. I miss it now.

 

[Stilllearning2b]

I am noticing a trend. Language and Music...

 

[sallycee]

I wish I had pursued the creative arts more seriously..... although I am not unhappy with the way things turned out.....

 

[Lady2020]

Not getting my degree in French Studies when I had 2 courses left. C'est la vie.

If you can walk, you can dance! Take lessons. Give yourself permission to be bad before you get good. I was around 50 when I learned to dance. You won’t regret it! Have fun.

 

[DarkSimian]

Finishing college. I was close, but life caught up with me. I suppose I could go back someday...

I guess I feel silly doing it without my partner. It’s just another area where her and I are opposites.

 

[Deleted member 3041612]

I would have liked to explore and have been more focused and consistent with my art skills.

I went back when I was 45. You'd be surprised how many credits they'll still accept.

 

[FranklyFrank]

That I didn't backpack across Europe when I had the chance to do so instead of jumping right into the frying pan of business. Maybe I will still keep visiting abroad on my bucket list.
