Do you think and feel that you have made the right decisions in your life?
 
Not all the time though my intentions were good they were either misunderstood, led by emotion or confusion at the time. But as you make the wrong choices and grow from them it makes you stronger learning from those past mistakes and growing from them rather than always making the right choices and never learning to appreciate through the feeling of loss. Then you will (I think) take for granted things that otherwise you would appreciate if you had made the mistake of losing or taking for granted. (So long answer short no I haven't made right decisions.)
 
That very much depends upon what one considers the "right decisions" to be.
It's more of a subjective matter than it is an objective matter.
We're subjective beings having an objective experience, thus the entanglement of life.
I've made myself more objective-based over time and continue to do so within the best of my ability to do so.
I think that between the ages of 20 and 40 it's a learning experience to teach you how to do this, how to become more objective and less subjective.
However, it's conflated by the Default Narrative of chasing the elusive "American Dream" which, all things considered, doesn't in fact actually exist.
That conflict is the result of many a broken individual, both financially and emotionally.
My job is to survive for as long as I can, that is my one and only purpose, every single meticulous calculation I make in my decision making is entirely part of the larger tapestry of my survival.
It's the small things in life that keep me happy, bring value and interest to me.
As a 90s gamer, I equate this grandiose design as the ultimate game, the Game of Life, no, not the Hasbro board game.
Some people play that game Sociopathically and Psychopathically, in a panicked frenzy, throwing everything into the Fire to keep it burning, including the very resources they accumulated to build the Fire in the first place.
I play it Solo, it's easier to Manage this way. Less politics and commerce, less factorial variables.
I forego many materialistic ,physical, and emotional pleasures through what I call "hardassing it," this way.
This nearly ascetic type of an approach honestly does actually bring meaning and fulfillment to me.
It isn't for everyone, absolutely not, but I mean, that's why I play Solo, it's for me.
 
For the most part i think i did, there are a few exceptions, and one major one, which i deeply regret. Betrayal.

Outside of that i just regret i never got to finish high school i guess, but that wasnt a choice though, it was forced. I could go back probably but id feel so out of place now. After what happend i withdrew from social life completely, and i still think i made the right call on that one, cause i needed it.
