Regrets are a complicated thing.. You can't change the past, so you shouldn't hold onto regrets.. But it's so hard not to! What is your biggest regret?

My biggest regret was not being able to take advance studies after graduation. My parents plan for me was to send me to Japan to take special courses on Dentistry. I didn't realize I was getting off-course towards my future. I got married earlier than expected and had a baby (well, actually, it was the other way around). But my husband and I did manage to graduate.

That's so great that you managed to graduate! You say that your parents' plan was to send you to Japan to do further study. Is that also what you wanted? I'm sorry that things happened so unexpectedly for you. :( But you know, as long as you are happy now, that is the most important thing! :)

Yes! I also wanted to be in Japan. I have always wanted to live there. I was born there. My dad was studying his Masteral Degree and Ph D back then so right after their wedding, they went to stay in Japan and then I was conceived and born there. Had to come back to the Philippines when my grandfather had a stroke. But I did have a short visit when I was 16 years old. And i have wished to come back.

I regret going to college for elementary education. I have not been able to find work in this field, especially after the economy tanked in 2008. It seems everyone has a teaching degree these days. Anyway, I wish I would have went into something in the medical field which is something I am truly passionate about.

Hi friend, we should not be very hard in our activities. Sometimes we may do some mistakes and we can regret for it. Have very nice day.
