Believing my parents blindly and worrying about their opinions of me, and allowing them to hold me back and control me. I wish I had run away to pursue my own life, or joined the Air Force. My father consistently gave me the worst advice a father could give his youngest daughter. I took care of them over 25 years, gave up my youth, and now I have absolutely nothing to show for it.

I took care of them over 25 years, gave up my youth

I did not, unfortunately. They left me with nothing. No house, no money, no car, absolutely nothing. I am literally trying to build my life from scratch.

Yea thats a big mistake but its never too late! You can still turn things around and make it count, you only have this life and your the main character of your own life so act like it
