Would I Change?

So I was thinking random thoughts this week as I thought about a friend who had passed away.  I started thinking about my own life and reflecting back on choices I had made or not made and how that probably led me to here.  I have definitely made my share of dumb decisions and have also been the recipient of others dumb choices as well and you know what. . .if I could go back and change it all, I wouldn't.  All the smiles, tears, laughter, frustrations, joys, and heartbreaks brought me to where I am today and made me the person I am.  Ya it would have been great to change some of the things in the moment, but they have past.  The clouds cleared.  Time has healed almost all wounds and will continue on whether we like it or not.  I love my life and even though it can have some not fun times or things that are frustrating, it is so good!  I have a husband who loves me and is kind to me.  He works hard for our family.  I have two very beautiful children who light up my life and keep me young.  I am finding myself everyday in every choice I make and I hope that at the end of my life I can look back and be satisfied knowing I did the best I could and will not regret what could have been.  I know that none of this would be considered wise or that profound but it really helped me figure myself out this week and helped me make another choice in how to live my life.  I AM happy to be me!
