To be honest, I have been through a lot of crap in my life, but if I deleted all the crap, I would also lose all the blessings in my life. Without my first marriage I would not appreciate my new husband and I would not have my beautiful daughter, if I had not been homeless I would not have a passion for people, if I had not been burned by people who needed help, I would not have the understanding that not all people who need help, want it and I would not have a beautiful collection of poetry capturing speciific lives for an eternity.

Thank you. I think it's the only way to be otherwise bitterness sets in and that would devestate my life and the lives of my family. Better to learn from mistakes and see the blessings in them.

Um i'll say not reporting being raped. That did more damage to me then the rape itself.

The biggest mistake what I have done is sign in to a site and putting all my hard work and not getting paid.

You can admit to making mistakes without also regretting them. We learn from our mistakes. If you never make any, you're not trying hard enough.

When I first started learning computers back in 1984, then never keeping up with it. I don't think there is a single person who started in the '80's who isn't at least a millionare by now. That's a mistake I regret the most.

The biggest mistake I've ever made was staying at my job as long as I did. Sometimes though you just get comfortable and just do enough to get through the day. Right now I am a SAHM so you are always on your toes, hoever, if I ever work outside of the home again, I will not get comfortable with my surroundings.

Wow, I can`t imagine marrying the wrong person! The wrong career I can. Anyway, the biggest mistake I ever made was cheating on my boyfriend in the past. I would take all of it back for anything in the world. He means so much to me and I didn`t mean to hurt him.

My Biggest mistake was probably not finishing school. But, I do not beleive in regret. Everything has happened perfectly. If I hadn't of dropped out, I wouldnt have found my husband and had my child. Thats just something to think about. It is pointless to go through life with regrets. Watch the butterfly effect, and you will see what I mean.
