ever regret not listening to other people advice or common sense? for example : You still smoke even though you know that its bad for health. and one day you found out that had lung cancer. at this point would you regret that you smoke? ever had an experience like that?

Oh most definitely. I mean who doesn't. There is always something in life that you got great advice about but didn't listen to. Thats why they say hindsight is 20/20. Meaning being able to reflect on the past you can see everything so clearly now when you are completely removed from the situation.

the biggest mistake of my life. and i even knew it coming. i even say that i won't regret it. well i didn't. but my family all fuss up about it and that make me feel guilty. my latest regret is not being with my grandma when she return home. i was kinda afraid to meet my relatives at her house. she done a lot for me but *sigh* i didn't have the courage to face them and said to her 'maybe next time'. if i think about it there will be fewer next time as she already quite aged. she probably want to spend some time with her grandchild. ah, stupid me.

I am constantly kicking myself in the rear for not listening to others wiser than me but stubborn is something I work hard to be if conformist does not come so easily . . . the way of life my friend ! sharing the light, Miss Erica Hidvegi, the Enlightenment Advisor, B.A. Psych/M.A. Transpersonal Studies- Cnslng/Author, Artist, Photographer, Entrepreneur & Freelance extraordinaire
