Top 5 Regrets of the Dying

Writer, Songwriter



After many years of feeling unfulfilled at her job, Bronnie Ware set out to find something that resonated with her soul. She ended up in palliative care where she spent many years helping those who were dying. Some time later, she compiled a list of the 5 most common regrets expressed by the people she cared for.
The list she collected gained huge popularity, and we are sharing it with you here today because it’s something all of us should keep in mind. Even though it can be hard to think about, this stuff is really important for your happiness right here and now!

Health brings a freedom very few realise, until they no longer have it.”

So the game was on.

She cracks. I WIN. She smiles. I say, "What?"
