We have less responsibility and a lot of money available. We had the chance to travel and experience the whole world, to live for our careers and to enjoy the company for many years. Now we want a family – a family with more than us both. ( says it's OK. 11208686 in reserve. Then we would not allow ourselves the luxury of regret. If a decision can not be reversed, I think it's natural to focus on the positive aspects of that decision – especially if that decision is a mistake that you can not learn much from.
