This is a very good observation.
I can say without question, that you do not want waste time. I had many unresolved issues with my father. I figured I would get around to addressing them. Then he was dead and I was left with a lot of unresolved issues.
Trust me. Let it go. You do not need to carry this kind of junk around with you. And be very clear that it is, as others have suggested, all about you.
