A Quote to Live By.
I was reading this morning and came across this wonderful quote from Lucille Ball.
“I would rather regret the things that I have done than the things that I have not.”
How often have you held back from doing something because you were scared or unsure? Because you were worried about what would happen? Remember that person you should have said goodbye to? Remember that boy you should have kissed when you had the opportunity? The hardest part is recognising the opportunities when they appear.
I can’t think of anything worse than coming to the end of my life and wondering what it would have been like if I had done the things that I was too scared to try.
Don’t let fear hold you back from anything. Try everything at least once. Lucille Ball was everything from blonde bombshell to queen of comedy. She tried it all. Follow her lead and as the ad says “Just Do It.”

I agree Anne, we don’t want to come to the end of our life and regret things we didn’t do. We need to trust our inner goddess more and go with the things that make our tummy twist and the butterflies flutter.

Too true. We learn by taking risks. Overcoming our fears and hesitations is a big first step.

I think I have lived most of my life like that although I do remember the boy I should have kissed many years ago when I had the opportunity! lol
