That sounds quite familiar. It took me a long time to come to the point in my life when I learned to thank Whoever Is In Charge for most of the mistakes I made and forgive myself for the rest. If I could go back, chances are I'd just make different mistakes this time - and who knows, it might be for the the worse!
