Regret or remorse are two words I wish didn't exist in the dictionary of human kind. Regret brings nothing but shame, embarrassment, sorrow, disappointment and a huge array of negative emotions attached to it. Why am I saying everything that we already know?
It's because in spite of knowing that there is nothing constructive achieved out or regretting certain actions or decisions of your life, each of us spends at least a few minutes every day pondering about how life would have been had i done/not done that and regret doing/not doing those things.
Pondering is good. Pondering helps you analyse and distinguish the good from the bad, the actions that instill a sense of pride from those that make you remorseful, so that you don't repeat the one's that made you remorseful or the one's that hurt someone in the process.
But regret is just a waste of time. Because you can't go back in time and your life sequence.
So instead of regrets, experience learning. Learning from your mistakes, from those incidences that made you into a better or a worse person. If it made you worse, then go back to the person whom you think was better.
For, only that can make you happy.
For, that's the only way to forget the past.
For, that's the only way to go back to the loved ones whom you left somewhere down the road.
Have the guts to face your mistakes and not run away from them.
Take nothing but learning and give nothing but your past to them.
