An older couple who wanted to retire offered to let me take over their cidery, back when I was doing a lot more homebrew… I declined because I knew nothing about ciders, I’d have needed to relocate, and I was in my last year of college.
Big mistake turning it down, even if I would have needed to relocate. I haven’t been properly stable since.
Please don’t be too harsh on yourself, you don’t actually know that it would have been a good idea, it is impossible to aay if it would have been better or not.
You took the logical route, finnishing your education, which opened other doors for you.
I tend to see life as a game where you are given a set of playing cards at birth, you gradually take over control of your deck as you grow up.
You play your individual cards with the knowledge you have, and every play can give you even better cards to use later.
You have no idea if you are about to get your next break, you can only play your cards with the knowledge you have.
Yeah, I know. I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my life, I just roll with it. But I do regret not taking up a lot of the opportunities that I didn’t realize were worthwhile opportunities. I have a tendency to screw myself over, it is what it is. :)
