No Regrets

As I lay there unconscious for 3 days, I did not have any flashbacks nor did I have any heavenly interactions.
Once I woke up though and came to understand the severity of what occurred and the fragility of my situation. I did some contemplation and I resolved to have no regrets.
I felt like I had lived a good life- I had my fun in my younger days (cue Used To Be Young by Miley Cyrus), I am lucky to have a wonderful support system, and I have an amazing family!
I started listening to the song 'Live Like You Were Dying' by Tim McGraw (confession: I love country music!). The song really speaks to me, especially after December 2023. I've started to live my life like each day I get since December 2023 is a gift and I want to make sure I spend it doing things and pursuing things that make me happy.
We have focused more on spending time together with our family, with our friends. We are committing to traveling more, something we haven't done as much since COVID. We've reduced our spend on material things to increase our spend on experiences. I am horse back riding more and was lucky enough to buy a horse in January 2025, Senator has helped me heal more than anything else (but that's a different blog post).
I no longer fear dying and not being here on Earth anymore. I know that everyone around me knows how much I love them because I tell them regularly. I know that I have led a happy and fulfilling life. I know that if I were to die, those I love the most, they would be ok.
What is something you have always put off doing to 'one day' that you would regret not doing? There is no time like the present to put those wheels in motion.
