I think I regret missing little things but appreciate that the decisions I have made have given me a life I am happy with today.

I regret selling my '65 Mustang Coupe when I joined the Army. I regret selling my Ford Pick the way I did. But today I have the
Jeep of my dreams.

I don't equate regret to longing. I made the right decision to get out of the military when I did, but I still miss it horribly to this day. But I would not live where I do today, with the friends I have today, with the life I have today had I stayed in. I can't regret that.

I don't equate regret to things that were out of my control that today make me sad. Sadness is not regret.
