Fellow "Bachelor" fans, I'm sure you were watching on Monday night, which means you'll remember when Jake (our very attractive, and extremely emotional bachelor) said something I found to be incredibly insightful. I won't go into the details of the situation as not to bore those of you who are silly enough NOT to watch the show, but someone was trying to make a huge decision between keeping a job, or finding love....
His response: "Life is about trying to minimize your regrets"
I don't know about you, but I think this is right on! The wheels started turning and of course I began to take inventory of the things in my life that I might regret. Of course there are things that I wish I hadn't said, or may have said differently. I would tell the people in my life how much I care about them even more than I do now. I would be sure I was running toward something instead of running away. I wouldn't hold any grudges. I would pray more! As these are things I try to do now on an every day basis, I can honestly say there isn't really one major thing I regret. I am where I am because of the decisions I've made and the journey I've taken. I'm happy, content, and have a positive outlook for the days ahead.
This came from a very unlikely source, but it made me think, and most of all made me appreciate the things I know I take for granted! Thanks Jake!!!
