Nana Biography

I don’t know if I would have handled the divorce situation differently or not. Probably not. I don’t see how – I don’t think I would’ve done anything to prevent it, now that I know what went on beyond. And what would I have done differently, let’s see, that I regret. No, nothing, I’d say, “oh God, I wish I hadn’t done that.“ No.

Because I’m sure we all regret lots and lots of little things. 

Oh yes, small things, but I don’t, maybe I would’ve been, knowing everything, and hindsight when you live your life, and hindsight, I might’ve acted differently in my household. I might’ve been nicer to my mother. 

Do you think that.

I think a lot of people think that when they grow up, because they’re not nice to their mothers.

How does she deal with it?

She’s fine. She’s a marvelous mother, oh, she spoils everything. That’ll be all right. No, do you have anything that you regret doing?

Oh, for sure,, I think everyone has something.

But I can’t just bring them up right now, what they are. I’ve often, things I wish I said, I told you about going to Esalen, you know, and things like that.

That sounds like it was sort of a turning point.

It was a big release. Oh boy, was I, away from there, just saturated. I mean, I was, I don’t know the word you use, but I let it all spell out. And it was wonderful. It was wonderful to do that in front of people you didn’t know.

That was really good for you.
