Random stuff and regrets

Random stuff from today.

Observed a "table of four" having a Tui breakfast at Rolled Oats circa 9.30 am this morning.  Mirabelle is my usual cafe of choice in Carterton, but being closed on Sundays, I default to Rolled Oats (actually, Rolled Oats is really "Wild Oats" but I've always called it that so that's what I call it!) for  coffee and the Sunday bread.  Tui breakfast = full cooked breakfast with - Tui!  I guess its no different from having a champagne breakfast?  Just kind of seemed funny, but also very Carterton, although not very Mirabellle!

I read this article in the Sunday Star Time about the regrets people declare when they are dying:

The article is not too different from what Elisabeth Kubler Ross said about dying back in the 70s or 80s: which reminded me of the titles of one of her books "to live until we say goodbye". 

I don't think the study actually has any great revelations in it.

However, I do think there is a lot in the point t makes, that there is a lot to be said for loving more, regreting less, and dying with a smile.

That's what I strive for currently: love more and regret less. Two essentials for living well.

Eeek, no road ride this weekend  - timing just didn't work out.
