Being an agnostic mom believing that I could raise healthy, wholesome children without God in their life. I was dead wrong and was forced to learn the hard way that the worse mistake any parent can make is not planting the seed of faith in our children. We never know what they may come up against and if they don’t know that they can turn to God, we are depriving them of their best hope for comfort and peace.
I am really serous about this. I know that God has forgiven me, but it is really difficult to forgive myself.
Parents, please don’t deny your children the love and comfort of out Heavenly Father.

I am sure almost everyone has said I would change this or change that, but if this or that was changed then what kind of outcome would have been then. Might have been worse. It is hard to live with regrets cause they tend to make one think of how bad things are and when you think of how bad things are or were you can't always see the happiness that is there in front of you. I have lived a hard life and yes I was a big part of what made it so hard, but I feel that it strengthened me, but don't the good and the bad go hand in hand. Without one or the other we couldn't learn lifes lil lessons. The thing is to learn from your mistakes and go on. No I don't always spend my time wisely. Especially now!!!!!

I have spent about half of my time wisely, either in school, at work, or chores around the house.
Probably the best thing I ever did was move away from my father to live with my mother. Otherwise I very likely would have become a lying criminal.
There are times I have been happy with my accomplishments. I would change it to live more practically, more positively, and much better judgment in the past.
If I could warn someone about a mistake, I would say don't pick up cute, friendly cats at random to take home, even if they look homeless - leads to collecting and neglect. Don't go following girls around if you don't know them very well and they don't know or like you. Don't hit the neighbor's kid, especially if his dad is a short-tempered alpha male. Don't skip school; get with the counselors to find fun classes and activities to participate in.

I'm happy with what I've learned so far. There are things I would do differently now that I'm older and wiser but to change anything that has happened in my life so far would be to change who I am today. I'm not sure I'd gamble on that.
My advice is this:
If you have a passion, if you know what you'd like to do with your life then go and do it!. Do whatever it takes to make your vision come true. DON'T listen to people who say, "Oh, that won't work--that's unrealistic--you'll never make a living at it, etc.".
No human being knows better what you should be doing
with yourself than...YOU!

1.I've spent some of my time wisely and other i have just thrown away and you can't turn back time.2.some parts of my life I've been happy with and other parts not as i made alot of mistakes3. I would definitely change things i did when i was younger as i am now paying for them with my health and financially because of drinking, smoking and not being consistent with my education and choices of employment. 4. one of the biggest mistakes i made in my life was in 12/05 my oldest daughter was in a volatile relationship little did i know then it wasn't just arguing but physical violence also On a Mon she called me for help and i went to go to her place and i called to say i was almost there so she'd be ready and she said no it's ok we'll work it out she was 28 so i let it ago went to see her on Wednes to see if she was doing OK and she said she was fine they were just going to separate i wish i would have just talked with her longer and said just come go with me anyway because a little over 8 hours later he shot her and killed her. So parents family friends if you suspect someone is in a violent relationship do all you can to get them away

God is good He has given me good things I have been through adversity as well.
I am a good manager of my time and I make the most of every moment. I work, I am in ministry, I pray a lot for others and myself.
I would not change a thing Success is failure turned inside out.
My BIGGEST mistake I have made was comparing myself to others who have more than me. God in his word says turn away from worthless things Psalm 119:37.
I would warn people to be careful of the words you speak to people they can either make them or break them.

Frankly speaking, for me the life is meaningless. But :
I actively do all the questions you have posed except changing in life.
Good luck.
