Everyone have some regrets in their life. During childhood, when we started to remember things, we certainly have some sort of regrets. Even at such a small age, we do have regrets. For example regrets in making choices.
Regrets of choosing ice cream instead of some chocolate bar because the taste of the latter might be better. Regrets of choosing chocolate flavored ice cream instead of chocolate mint or cookies and cream one. Bigger regrets like watching cartoon while other kids have fun playing outdoors. Or even regrets of making the younger one fell down over some cookies instead of just share with them, that cause us to be punished by parents.
In teenagers life, in middle or high school, when the world seems a whole lot bigger. There were more regrets that we did because there are more choices. Regrets of choosing a not so popular club when you could choose a better one but you had already registered and it was not easy to change them. You end up have to force yourself to every meetings as its such a pain and it is actually not to your likes...at all..
About friends, on regrets of choosing on who we hang out with. Regrets of being stuck with some people for a whole year and they actually didnt do any good to you. Instead of choosing one friend that see good in you and bring out the potential in you, but you only realize it a bit later. Because in the end we knew who are the best friends vs just-pretend-to-be-good-friends. Regrets of ending a good friendship with someone because we didnt realize that they are important to us. When we woke up, they had left us and it is impossible to patch up the broken strings.
In adulthood, (i still consider myself teenager, thank you) there are much more regrets. A bigger regrets that may lead to a bigger consequences. Work, family, finance, friendship and even to some people, in love or as they called it, relationship. We end up keep thinking about them, about those regrets. The thoughts of them keep pestering us especially when we are alone, why we made this decision instead of those..
The truth is we are mere humans. Who dont know where we might end up by making a certain decision. Who completely clueless, no, maybe partially clueless about what might suddenly happened after a choice is made.
So just let it go. Dont let those regrets eat you up. Because if you do, you will never had that peace of mind, you will always be regretful in whatever you do. We learn from experiences. We learn from others. We make a decision base on what we are taught since childhood. We learn from those ettiques taught by our community.
If there are some undesirable consequences, and usually there always be because we cant control all things in life, the best way is to correct them as much as we can. And thats it, not more than that. We have done what we can. As to correct them, apologize always seems to be one of the ways. After that, let it go.. but dont forget them. They are our best guidelines for our next choices in life.
Remember, let them go but dont forget them.
