Strike "do right by my family;" you will find it may conflict with "live with no regrets." The latter should take precedent over the former.gfwpzech
I hope you had a happy birthday! I do have to tell you that my thirties were so much better than my twenties that comparison between them seems farcical(and my twenties were great). May it be so for you too!
Congrats on that amazing list of accomplishments. Next year I'll be 29, and I haven't done most of what you mentioned--I am envious, but definitely in a good way.
