That isn't to say that I have committed serious crimes, as I haven't, it's just that I've hurt people, like my parents, through alcohol misuse when I was younger, and through never truly realising my potential. I feel as if they look back on when I was a child, full of joy, and then look at me now and realise that the happiness has been poured out of me.

I'm sorry to hear that too. Life is full of regrets and mistakes. Who doesn't have regrets? Who hasn't made mistakes? We all have and it's part of life's learning curve.

We need to learn from our mistakes and move on, as a better and wiser person.

Your parents look back on your childhood when you were 'full of joy' ... I'm sure they do, happy memories, AND I'm equally sure they still wish you were 'full of joy'.

Like I said to Silent Legend, the past is done and gone, but the present and the future are yours.... You can turn things around and be the person you were always meant to be.
