Regret.

I don't really have any regrets. I know some people who do, though.
I always though that there was never much point in them because theyre is nothing you can do to change the past, what happened at the time. You can sort out your status, or relationship or whatever after the regret so that you don't need to regret whatever happened anymore because the consequences are sorted and that is the main thing about a regret.

Sometimes I think "what if?". What if I'd done it differently? What if I'd have stayed? What if I'd have said how I really felt?

What is the actual point of a regret though? I understand that it's when you wish you had or hadn't done something. I believe that it's easier to regret something you didn't do, a missed opportunity because you never know what might have happened afterwards and then there are more "what if" questions than ever.

What do you really get out of a regret? It's just unnecessary worry about something in the past that you can't changed. Something that you have to live with, you have to accept and you have to get over so that it doesn't ruin (that word might be a bit strong but I suppose how much the regret affects you) your life.

I don't believe in regrets. I can accepting wishing things had gone differently, but I think that the sooner you let a regret go the better because you can go on living your life and you'll be happier.


I hope you never have any regrets... Learn from your mistakes instead of regretting them.
But I hope you're never in a situation that you could possibly live to regret later on in life. Who knows what might happen? The past is the past and the future is ahead of you. You can't let the past ruin the gift that is the future.

You can't see the future when you have tears in your eyes.
