If I had my life to live over。。。I would have talked less and listened more。
I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was strained and the sofa faded。
I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth。
I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up onasummer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed。
I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage。
I would have sat on the lawn with my children and not worried about grass stains。
I would have cried and laughed less while watching television-and more while watching life。
I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretendingtheearth would go into a holding patter if I were not there fortheday。
I would never have bought anything just because it was practical，would not show soil or was guaranteed to last a lifetime。
There would have been more I love yous 。。。 more I"m sorrys。。。but mostly， given another shots at life， I would seize every minute。。。 look at it and really see it。。。live it。。。and never give it back。
