Letting Go of Regrets

We should have no regrets... The past is finished. There is nothing to be gained by going over it. Whatever it gave us in the experiences it brought us  was something we had to know.

My 84 year mother loses sleep over her regrets. She ponders over everything that she did wrong when she was bringing us up and she tells me at least once a week.  That strikes me as strange as in other cases, she is such a strong person. It just these regrets that she can't seem to manage.

Celebrity Quotes about Getting Older

 It seems that none of us can get of getting older, but it certainly doesn't hurt when your mom tells you that you certainly don't look it! My mom would never lie!! ;)


The great thing about getting older is that you don't lose all the other ages you've been.
Madeleine L'Engle

Wrinkles should merely indicate where smiles have been. Mark Twain

That's me: an old kazoo with some sparklers. Bette Davis

My body might be getting older (all those aches and pains) but my brain isn't keeping up. I would love to go back to when I was about ten years old. No worries, nothing to do but get up and go outside and play... at least in the summer.

I'm eighty-three and homeless. It was the same when World War II ended. The Army kept me on because I could type, so I was typing other people's discharges and stuff. And my feeling was "Please, I've done everything I was supposed to do. Can I go home now?" That what I feel right now. I've written books. Lots of them. Please, I've done everything I'm supposed to do. Can I go home now? I've wondered where home is. It's when I was in Indianapolis when I was nine years old. Had a dog, a cat, a brother, a sister.

Do not regret growing older.  It is a privilege denied to many.
