As a person who have lived for practically 18 years,a few months,a few days and so on and so forth...I have come to realized that I felt regret one too many times...To have regretted is a normal thing in life I supposed...seeing that I am not the only one experiencing it...I am very sure that all who is reading this would have regretted on a thing or two in your own respective life...
Maybe it was the dress you should have bought...
or the party that you should have attended...
or the movie that you should not had watched...
or the guy you should have talked too in school...
or the teacher you should have said a million thanks too when you got your results...
or more serious things like
the last conversation you would have with a loved one...
the last hug that you can have with your daddy...
the last grin on your grandma's face...
the last time you can hear your brother's voice...
Things like this often occur because we being human are ignorant...
We never know what we got till it is gone...
We never know how important something or someone is till they are no longer in our life...
But sometimes,we feel regret for trivial matters...For all the times that we have lived,we spend time looking back in the past...Thinking about the possibilities,the "what if" or the "what could have been" when we know deep down inside,we can never have the chance to know what would have really happened...
But some of us prefer to cling on to the past,because we are not happy with our choices then and how we ended up here today...Its obvious that what is happening around us are a matter of choices we made before...Therefore,we feel regret to have took the road that lead us here...When at the first place,it was our own choice that lead us to where we are...There is no such thing as a "No choice situation"...
Its almost impossible to ask someone to not regret...because it comes with our nature of being normal people...but what we can do is to not regret about something so much because regrets are for cowards who dare not face the future...they are the ones who dare not see what lies ahead...
Sometimes,we end up regretting so much,reliving the past and present that could never have been that we lose track of reality...we end up living in our own dream,shadowed by our regrets...where we slowly lose our true self to our own doing...
Therefore,its only right to sum this up by saying,
be wise when making a decision,think through all the possible choices before making one...
and
when the decision has been made,live it without any regrets for it was your choice...
In other words...
have some balls to face your own actions...
and enjoy it to the fullest...=)
