As I'm entering what most would call my twilight years, why am I now finally seeing what I should have been doing with my life all along? I hate that I squandered so much of it.

Don’t spend those years in self pity.

There’s a ton on young people right here that often talk about being stuck in life.

Help them

@User41 It's not pity at all. I've done a lot of things that I'm proud of. I just want to do more.

But there are a ton of young people here that could use your years of wisdom@MrBill36

@User41 No problem. I just feel there's more than I an say in the time I have left.

You know, in a weird way, you get older and realize all the things you fucked up.

But at the same time you can get lost in your life in the same way you did when you were 15

At some point you need to make peace with it all.

Could have, should have, but didn’t @MrBill36
