Regrets of the Dying

Loved this post "Regrets of the Dying" by someone who worked in palliative care for years and noted down the regrets her patients had or anything they would do differently. She says she was with them for the last three to twelve weeks of their lives and the common themes surfaced again and again.

The most common five

1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.

2. I wish I didn't work so hard.

3. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings.

4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.

5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.

Hey man I love your blog... I'm a preacher who has been turned completely inside out by the Grace message that Pastor Joseph Prince preaches... I had to walk away from my Organization and start a new ministry... I saw something you said on another blog that drew me top yours... sounds like you've gotta a hold of the gospel of Grace... :)
