Pursuing post-secondary education. I was too poor to go to college (but not quite poor enough to get aid) and the debt has been crippling. I make good money on paper in my field but I’m barely making ends meet after throwing my monthly sacrifice to the student loan beast.
Honestly, I believe everything happens for a reason. If things didn’t happen the way they did, it probably wouldn’t make me the person I am today. Of course I wish some things of my life in the past didn’t happen, or «disappeared». But regretting things and change them, would lead to me not being where I am right now, and not have the closest people to me such as my bf. I know it might sound as an cliche, but it’s the simple truth.
I didn’t notice how badly my dad was doing mentally. Rationally, I know now that I couldn’t have known, but it’s still hard to deal with. It took a lot of therapy to get to that point. For a long time, I blamed myself, and even now, when I’m feeling low, I sometimes still do.

Regret nothing, it’s one of the most harmful and useless emotions.
Focus on now and tomorrow instead.

Marrying the wrong man.
Not being confident earlier
Being lonely
Moving back to mums
Not doing well in school
Getting into debt
Not being the mom I wanted to be.
The things I’ve done.
