Regret

Regret. I think that’s another word that I think is pretty powerful. It’s weird because I’ve been thinking about it a lot. Its been coming across my mind a lot lately. I don’t really know why, because I’m one of those people who don’t have any regrets. I don’t really believe in it. I believe that at that moment that it happened, it was exactly what you wanted. You could’ve prevented it from happening rather then “regretting” it later on. I can say though that I’ve made a lot of mistakes, which I’ve learned from. I’ve dated a lot of guys who were losers, or ones that tried to use me. And I tried to stop it before it led to anything else. Because I’m not that type of girl. However there have been times where I fell victim of temptation because I liked the guy so much. I knew he would hurt me somehow yet I chose to go down that path anyways and ended up paying for it later. Does that mean I regret it? No. I don’t. I learned from it. But then I think its difficult when u have children. U don’t want ur kids to make the same mistakes as u did, but then how will they learn? U can tell them the right thing to do, but in the end they’re still going to do what they want to do. The point im trying to make is that we all do things that later on, we look back on and we second guess it or wonder if it was the right thing. No regrets though. It’s in the past already. It already happened, so why not let it be? I think I can say that in the past 25 years I’ve done a lot of stupid things. But I don’t regret anything. It was an experience. And that’s what life is.
