I'm hearing from people who have read Raymond's story, including how it has made some think about their own lives.
Tricky business, that! While probably human nature, it's little too easy to look back only regretting past choices we wish we could now unmake. I occasionally have to remind myself to acknowledge what I've done right rather than just that I now wish I hadn't done, said, or thought. You should too. Thank you to those who purchased and read Raymond's story, particularly if you enjoyed it. And if you are now focused on the list of your own life's choices, cut yourself some slack. While Socrates said, "The unexamined life isn't worth living", I believe he would tell us all to examine our own lives fairly, spending as much time recognizing those choices we wouldn't change as we do those we would.
