Top five regrets of the dying

This was published in The Guardian at the beginning of February, and it has been making the rounds on the Internet. It is a good read, but I would like to focus on the 5th regret:

"5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.
This is a surprisingly common one. Many did not realise until the end that happiness is a choice. They had stayed stuck in old patterns and habits. The so-called 'comfort' of familiarity overflowed into their emotions, as well as their physical lives. Fear of change had them pretending to others, and to their selves, that they were content, when deep within, they longed to laugh properly and have silliness in their life again."

Very insightful - read the entire article here.
