It's one thing to live a life that we don't regret and quite another to always insist that the life we have chosen has no regrets in it. I remember even as a much younger man asking a colleague of mine, what would you do differently if you could have this experience over again? And without a heartbeat, the answer came back: Nothing. That is not an inherently depressing thought but in some ways a thrilling one because it removes fear of choosing the wrong thing. In a way it infuses courage into my bones. It challenges me to be even more unreasonably selective about how to use this precious time. You become proud of your life, proud of the life you have chosen
