It is a good idea that you do what you want to do when you can do. Otherwise, you never know.
I fondly remember sightseeing in Turkey; Israel; and Egypt several years ago. Too bad it appears a bit too dangerous to do that these days. While I personally feel I'm done with Egypt, if I have a chance I'd like to come back to Turkey and Israel because they are such amazing and charming destinations.
A few people asked me if I regret not having children. I don't. Somehow since I was a teenager I had a clear picture that the last thing I wanted to do when I become an adult is to carry grocery shopping's plastic bags under the bright sun around noon on a weekday.
Rather, I imagined looking at myself in the mirror on the side a supermarket shelf in the evening, wearing a nice coat and boots and saying "God, I'm looking old..." Guess what, that's exactly what I am doing; well close, because I do online shopping instead these days.
Luckily enough I don't think I regret not doing anything -- well, almost. I only wish I had enough New Year holidays to spend with my parents.
Earlier this week I sent a Christmas gift to a friend of mine with whom I did not talk for a while. To be honest I wasn't sure, but knew that the item I happened to get would be best appreciated by him. Turns out he was very excited and I'm glad I did.
I think the key for no regrets is not to worry too much about how I might look.
