I'd agree with you. As a sidenote, I held an American professional Superbike racing license through most of my 20s and did a whole bunch of crazy stuff I won't mention here on top of it. Watched several people die and get maimed in one of the many races I competed in. Before that I spent some time in the Marines, including time in a warzone. I have a few regrets from a couple bad decisions I made, but I enjoyed every moment of that absolutely crazy life and never felt more alive looking back at it. It seems like an old dream I had at this point - In my 30s I slowed down, got married and had children. It's much different than my previous life, but it's been a wonderful and powerful experience as well. I feel like I've had my cake and ate it too, and you bet ya I feel blessed every single day to be here taking my share of fresh air. It would be interesting to see my thoughts if I had never had kids, but I feel as though it would be positive either way because I choose it to be. That being said, I do feel personally like there is more to life than living for yourself. Whether that transfers to having kids or volunteering somewhere to help others, etc., I'll leave that decision to the reader.
