I often like to say that I try to live my life with as few regrets as possible, and I often boasted about how few regrets I had in my life.

I think I’ve been fooling myself for as long as I’ve been saying that, because when I really think about it, I know that I’ve got a lot of regrets out there, and me claiming that I don’t have them really isn’t doing me any favors.
