I Have Regrets

I Always Have, I Always Will

By: earth2bella

Written on December 19th, 2007

Regret is just something that I'm slowly learning to deal with and live with. I can't escape it. I can't run away from it. 80 years from now I'd love to look back on my life and say "I really lived a good, happy, honest life and I regret nothing" but I don't think that'll be me. I regret so much in only the few short years I've been on this earth. I guess now I just have to learn to deal with each regret, and move on.

I could write a book full of everything I regret, and I still think I could write another...

Regrets were made to make us realize to "always" be who we are..to do things because we're happy to do it and would love to do it. Not to "just let it be" or simple because "it has to be done". Life has no rewind buttons or pause buttons, we just simply need to be constantly aware that we're always in the play mode.

you took the words out of my mouth. Regret, like shame and guilt, left unattended is like a cancer. It will eat you up inside. But like what the other posters said, it plays a great role in shaping our character.

we all have regrets, but without those regrets we wouldnt be who we are. so as much as we dislike our regrets sometimes when looked at as part of us they almost seem worth it.
