TOP 5 REGRETS OF THE
DYING
Bronnie Ware is an Australian nurse who spent several
years working in palliative care, caring for patients in the
last 12 weeks of their lives. She recorded their dying
epiphanies in a blog. What would your biggest regret be
if this was your last day of life?
I WISH I'D HAD THE COURAGE TO LIVE A LIFE
TRUE TO MYSELF, NOT THE LIFE OTHERS
EXPECTED OF ME
1.
When people realise that their life is almost
over and look back clearly on it, it is easy to
see how many dreams have gone unfulfilled.
I WISH I HADN'T WORKED SO HARD.
 All of the men I nursed deeply regretted
spending so much of their lives on the treadmill
of a work existence
2.
I WISH I'D HAD THE COURAGE TO EXPRESS MY
FEELINGS.
 Many people suppressed their feelings in order
to keep peace with others. As a result, they
settled for a mediocre existence and never
became who they were truly capable of
becoming.
3.
I WISH I HAD STAYED IN TOUCH WITH MY
FRIENDS.
 Many had become so caught up in their own
lives that they had let golden friendships slip by
over the years.
4.
I WISH THAT I HAD LET MYSELF BE HAPPIER.
 Fear of change had them pretending to others,
and to their selves, that they were content,
when deep within, they longed to laugh properly
and have silliness in their life again."
