Top Five Regrets of the Dying A Life Transformed by the Dearly Departing (Limited Edition Hardcove

I remember reading excerpts from this book about the top regrets of the dying that was written by someone who works with people as they're dying and pay attention to their regrets and it was things like I wish I'd made more time for my friends and family I wish it hadn't worked so hard but one of the ones that really stood out to me was I wish I'd let myself be happy I'd let myself be happy not I wish I'd had a happy life yes not I wish I had more happiness I wish I had let myself be happy yeah I think it's the most powerful moments in life

It's like the Chris Rock movie 'Top Five.' Give me a big five.

There was this nurse in Australia, she was a hospice nurse, and so she took care of patients when they were about to die. The question was, do you have any regrets? And she even wrote a book about something like the five regrets of dying.

The number one regret was not living the life I could have lived.

The nurse in question is Australian palliative care provider, Brani Ware, author of the 2012 memoir, The Top Five Regrets of the Dying.

I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings. I wish I'd stayed in touch with my friends. I wish I'd let myself be happier. And finally, I wish I hadn't worked so hard.
