If Only….
….I had told you that you were the world to me.
….I responded to that client in a timely manner.
….I took the time to reconnect with myself and gave myself moments in my day to relax.
….I remembered that gratitude is the best attitude and paid it forward.
….I had given attention to the details.
….I didn’t give in to fear.
….I did not pass judgment first.
….I remembered that my ego isn’t driving the bus for my life.
….I remembered that people matter not numbers.
….I remembered that you were right and I was wrong.
….I gave credit where credit was due.
….I allowed myself to fail.
….I celebrated my success.
If only we could take the time to remember it’s okay to be human. We are all here for a reason and we have many gifts. Let’s have no regrets and no time to ask if only….
Jen,
Groovy new theme!
Ya mean we’re allowed to take time to be human…?
Thanks for the fabulous reminders!!

Yes, we are allowed. And we should have no regrets, either. Thanks, Keri. You rock!
Jen, I love the format of that blog post. It caught my eye right away. I am glad it is not too late for ‘If Only’s’ for me! Trying to live my life to the fullest, with family, friends and business balanced, and unbalanced, at times, but living it remembering all the ‘If Only’s’ b/c of having lost loved ones too early who probably have those If Only’s. What a wonderful reminder. Thank you for making my Sunday
Thanks, Dorien. I’m glad I could make your Sunday. I never want to have those moments where I look back and say “If only”. Our family, friends are much too precious. I strive to leave those I meet better than before we met as well. Greet with a smile, and enjoy the moments. Give your time, make sure you say what you mean and mean what you say, those some of the best ways I can think to ensure the “If Only” moments never exist. I’ve said goodbye to too many family and friends as well that I wish I could go back and have a moment to let them know what gifts they have given me now. Thanks again, Dorien. You have given me a smile today. Cheers!
Jen,
Beautiful! I love this.
Hanging onto regret really weighs a person down. So refreshing when you live your life free from them and truly enjoy your moments. 
You are so kind, Joanne. Having those kinds of regrets does give you a lot of baggage in life. Take the time in the moment and release it, good or bad. You have live in the now and never look back to say what if or if only. Thanks for taking the time, Joanne. I truly appreciate your kindness.
