unfulfilled desires

A peek into a person's life lets me reflect on my own for a while...

There are a lot of things I regret doing, just as much as there are a lot of things I regret not doing. In particular, I regret not being a little naughtier, a little wilder, a little more rebellious, a little more of a drinker... I resent the fact that I'm too straight-laced, too rule-based, too much of a rational rather than an emotionally-charged person...

How do I grow up when I had not even the chance to be young?

Empathising with the elder brother in the story of the prodigal son...
