Regret:
Feel sad, repentant, or disappointed over (something that has happened or been done, esp. a loss or missed opportunity).
Noun
A feeling of sadness, repentance, or disappointment over something that has happened or been done.
Everyone has regrets in their lives, no matter how young or how old. It's how we let those regrets define us that makes us who we are.
It is impossible to go through life without regrets, for we all are human. We all make mistakes. It's how we take those mistakes and learn from them that defines us. For if we choose to wallow in the regret for the rest of our lives, we learn nothing but self-pity. But if we take that mistake that led to the regret and learned something from it that made us better people in the long run, isn't that better? Aren't you glad that you made that mistake then so that both yourself and other people could learn from it?
If you are given the opportunity of a lifetime, and you only had one shot, would you take it? I would, because I don't want to not take it and then regret that choice for the rest of my life.
So I guess what I'm trying to say here is to live with a few regrets as possible. You're going to make mistakes, and truthfully that is one of the few ways that we learn who we are, but don't make to many.
Do what you want. Live how you want. Don't ever apologize for being who you are. Live each day like it's your last, and live it without regrets.
