7 THINGS TO AVOID IF YOU DON'T WANT TO REGRET YOUR OLD AGE

When younger, we make various choices without the future in mind. Sometimes those choices bite us in our mid-life. These are some of the things one might regret when they are older.

1. marrying the wrong person
When you, check your motives for marrying. Don't marry to copy your peers or for social or out of pressure. Marry for love and companionship, marry the right person, marry your best friend. For if you marry the wrong person or for the wrong reason, you will have to put up with that person the rest of your life. Things might get worse between the 2 of you then depression, physical abuse, affairs, pains, shame, court cases, bitterness will define your midlife years all because you chose the wrong one. Things will get worse when children are involved. So make the right choice of a spouse when you are young in order not to fall as a victim

2. The opportunities you did not seize
When you are younger, many doors will open,you will get many chances. Many young people let these opportunities go and slip out of their hands because of fear, laziness or pride. When you are young, you have more energy and this is the best time to start a venture and a name for yourself. Some thing the opportunities are too big for them. Take advantage of them or one day when you are older, you will want to go back and grab those missed chances

3. The bridges you burned
When we are younger, we are little for relationships, what most persons think about is getting money and moving up the ladder of success at all cost. Many use and trample on people to progress in their life.,they take relationships for granted, messing up bonds, having sequel affairs with people for personal gain. But these bad actions will catch up with you ahead. When you will realise how empty life is without love and friends, when you will have success but no one around you or no one to trust you.

4. The child you aborted
You are a young lady, you get pregnant and you are scared. You take the aborting option quickly thinking of that present moment then. But when you are much older, you will look back and wish you kept that baby. When you will be rich an successful, you will wish that child you gave up would be around to enjoy the fruits of your hand work. Being a single mother doesn't mean you can't make it in life or you can't find a man in the future. You can always find a man when the time is right.

5. The child you rejected
As a Young man, you impregnated a girl, she told you she is pregnant with your child. You rejected her and the baby and ran. But years later when you are 50+,you will wish you were responsible, you will wish you manned up and became a father to that child. You will see that child excel and become an adult but you will have no claim to that grown child whom you have rejected from the beginning.

6. The marriage you destroyed
So you got married to your good fiance; the first months in marriage were good but shortly after, with your money and charm, you started having affairs, you be became unfaithful to your spouse. You spouse begged you to stop, your children started hurting, your marriage was collapsing right before your eyes. One day when you are older, it will hit you how foolish you were to destroy the good marriage you had began to build for mere temporary thrills in affairs that did you no good. You will realise the damage you caused to your children and spouse for all what you did.

7. The God you disowned
When you are much older, you become wiser, God becomes more real as you see life in more meaningful way and different dimensions. But don't wait to get older to start enjoying a relationship with God your creator. Know God when you are young, build your future with God. Don't be a young rebel who runs back to God when age catches up
