“If I have any regrets about my teen years, or any years, I wish I could relive them with the brains, knowledge, cofidence and understanding of adulthood.”
That’s totally the way I feel. I would have done certain things differently. But hindsight is always 20/20, isn’t it?
Anyway – every stage in life has its ups and downs. We have to focus on the “ups” which can be amazing and then deal with the “downs” and know that Hashem is in charge and knows what’s best for us.
