Regret

Nothing is impossible Nothing can stop me All I can think, my life ahead Chase the dream You didn’t believe No one did Everyone does the same Be like them Nothing went right Holding in what used to talk Wanted a better life Wondered if I tried Now on my own The regret of not trying It never goes away Wishing I chased the dream Submitted 5/6/19 Holding Back The Years - Simply Red

such a sad regret . I think many do not chase the dream, though. Those who do can also end up very disappointed if they fail in it.

Hi there Andrea! True. Many don't try. Then there are probably lots of folks that tried and gave up after the first hurdle. I think the scary ones are the ones that fall, get back up, and keep going at it until they win.
