If I had to live my life again, I wouldn't have changed much, but there's 1 thing I want I had done.
I had grandparents who survived 2 planet wars, survived the times of Piłsudski and Dmowski, survived the German and russian occupations, survived Bieruta and Gomulka. My grandpa had a father colonel in the Tsar army, my dad fought in the Army of Anders. I read books about these times, and I have hundreds of questions I would love to ask my parents and grandparents. Unfortunately, they're gone and I won't ask them any more questions.
My life was a bit quieter in times, but I besides survived Gierek, Jaruzelski, Walęsa, Kaczyński, Tuska. I survived the times of introducing electronics into our lives, I survived the times of Polish football. It would seem that my Children and Grandchildren should fill me with questions about time. Unfortunately, they behave precisely as I did years ago. They don't ask, and I understand. All I'm worried about is that in the 20-30s, they're gonna have a reflection akin to mine.
