Caregivers frequently sit with the dying at the end of their lives.They patiently listen through touching stories, great achievements and even some pretty heavy regrets.
Here are the top 5 regrets of the dying:
1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
2. I wish I didn't work so hard
3. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
5. I wish I had let myself be happier.
