I wouldn't change a thing.
I gave up a full ride to college to move with my new DH for his first job. We have been married for 36 years. He still treats me like a princess. My kids are grown, happy and successful and are good people. My grandgirls are wonderful. I like my job.
A few weeks ago my hubby and I were sitting in our porch swing holding hands. He looks at me and says, "Do you know how lucky we are? We may not be rich, but we are still in love and content. How many people our age can say that?".
Nope, wouldn't change a thing.

I have a great DH, it took more than one try to find him, we will never been money rich, but we are comfortable and loved and what more is there?
Today, is a year since I flew to Florida to be with my daughter as she laid in a hospital bed . All because of drugs. Another event that has affected my life, would I change it ????? It made me stronger to face..what..I do not know. Staci, is alive and trying to stay clean and I'm praying that she can do it.
We have control over the small things and have to "tolerate" the hard things. You must remember ,you didn't cause the problem, you can't control everything in our lives, nor cure everyone problems. Live your life the best you can and the smile...they will wonder what you are up to.

I always wanted to be a nurse and achieved my goals in 1990. Now I wish I had become a CPA instead. Because I am a nurse, my family thinks I should be taking care of everyone and I do, with no help from any of them. Well, at least I have my my quilting to keep me sane(LOL...most of the time).

I'd marry my DH again. 42 years together. I was 19 he was 23 and fresh back from Vietnam. I don't regret a minute of our lives together and love him more every day. We raised 4 children of our own and 3 precious strays that wandered in with them over the years. Had a sweet DIL die at 20 and had the privilege of raising a granddaughter that is like our own child. Joy and tears. Mostly joy.
