I fear regrets also. Try this exercise: You know those lists of "a zillion things to do before I die?" Well, instead, start making a list of all the things you've done. When I did this, I was very surprised--first at all the stuff I'd done; and second, that this list was WAY longer than the "to do" list.

Here's a little excerpt from my list to inspire you:

Been monogamous
Made a complete and utter fool of myself
Gone camping
Met Ronald Reagan (when he was governor of California)
Sat on a jury in a child molestation case
Asked for a raise and got it
Cooked sauerbrauten. Once.
Took my kids on a surprise trip to Disneyworld
Taught classes
Met someone in person found on the Internet
Had anonymous sex
Been to the top of the Space Needle
Read a long novel in one sitting
Swam in the ocean
Bought a new car
Crocheted an afghan
Went snowshoeing in Yosemite National Park
Watched Old Faithful gush in Yellowstone
Gone skinnydipping
Ridden horses (not very well)
Played tennis (again, not very well)
Squashed a bedbug
Dyed my hair purple and red (not at the same time)
Organized and chaired a science fiction convention
Attended Grateful Dead concert (and many others)
Been searched at gunpoint by Mexican Federales
Seen a dead body
Survived serious injury
Climbed the Pyramid of the Moon in Teotihuacan Mexico
