Roads less taken

I'm sitting here on a beautiful Sunday afternoon, watching my wife sleep and my daughter play, just thinking about the past. Being only 25, I realize that I have some regrets in life (like most people do). If I could go back in time and change just 3 of them and they would not change what I have now, they would be:

1) I would have done better in high school.
2) I would have not let a teacher stopped me from being a photojournalist.
3) I would have not spend all my time impressing "friends" that I will never see again.

So if I'm not the only one who thinks about roads less taken, post below.
 
Y'know? I've really thought about this, and have been thinking about it even before you posted the thread...

I honestly would not have taken any of the roads I didn't.. and I don't regret the roads that I did take.

I would not be who I am had I not made the decisions that I made.

Agreed. It's only because of the choices you do make that you can sit back and with some wisdom wonder what life would be life under the guise of "what if?".
 
I think the question comes down to if these are major changes or are they as insignificant as what I am having for dinner tonight.
 
1. i would probably take a few more risks in high school.
2. i wouldn't take responsibility for keeping my family connected.
 
I would not be where I am today now and know the people I do if I changed anything. I wouldn't change anything. :) I do have regrets but.. I hate to dwell on the past. The future looks so bright :)
