Deathbed Regrets

My sister died with regrets. I don't want to. So I work hard on letting go of mine.

I had regrets about my divorce and after 25 years my x husband and I spent a year, via email, unraveling what drove us apart and going through a sincere process of forgiveness. 

I was motivated by the desire to not carry these regrets one day to my deathbed. I feel so free from those regrets now and I have forgiven and been forgiven. My regrets list is getting shorter and that feels good.

Here are common regrets that people expressed on their deathbeds:

“I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.”

“I wish I hadn’t worked so hard.”

“I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.”

“I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.”

“I wish that I had let myself be happier.”

Do you relate to any of these regrets?

What regrets do you have?

Write them down now and give yourself some time to work through them and let go of them while time is on your side. You will be glad to lose them. I promise!

Let me know how it goes!
