This just in - Daniel Pink has written a book about regrets. We've all seen the *No Regrets* blurb all over the place - suggesting that we should not regret anything. He decided to delve into that idea and interviewed lots of people about their regrets.
Link to the World Regret Survey There is a survey you can take and then read lists of anonymous regrets that people have. If my library gets the book, I'll probably read it and see what it says. I do have some regrets - but nothing that causes me to lose sleep. I'm satisfied that I accomplished things that I set out to do and I also accomplished things that I had no idea I was going to do.
Rachaels comment about deeply regretting a detail on one of her envelopes - is something I repeat and will continue to repeat. Continued gratitude to Rachael.
I did read through some of the regrets posted at the website. People regretting lack-of-focus during their early years is pretty common. And more than a couple regretted that they did not pursue something creative. One of the topics I've been beating into the ground: it's never too late to be creative.
And here is my Feb exchange envelope to Rachael - it needed something in that space. In addition to deeply regretting the a's, I deeply regret that I was not careful to get the x-height on both names the same.
I have not decided how to finish Ming's. This style of lettering popped up on Pinterest. I'll run it tomorrow with some other attempts. The birthday stamp is the only one I have found that goes with that green marker.
