Knowing what you know now ...

I'd try to be more considerate of the people in my life, to take them seriously as human beings, especially in my late teens and early twenties.

I would long ago have stopped giving a crap about what someone else thought about how I should live my life.
I would not have gotten married to someone who considered "people like me" to be immoral perverts.
I would not have hated myself because of my deep dark secret.
