Regret


Hello world,

I wanted to talk about regret today, some of the regrets I've had in the past, and some that Haunt me still to this day. I've been told that I'm too critical on myself about topic, but I will let you judge. 

I Regret: Stealing an orange balloon from Michael's craft store, even if my Mom noticed it and made me bring it back and apologize to the cashier.

I Regret: Not standing up for my religious beliefs as much as I should have in school, Because I could have brought more people to God.

I Regret: Not being able to say goodbye to Josie, because I lost my phone the day before and didn't get the message to get on skype.

I Regret: Not giving that man in Nicaragua a bottle of water, Because I thought that he might have hit me with one of the rocks he was throwing. 

There are a lot of things that bring up the feeling of regret. but at the end of the day what's done is done. Living life regretting the things you cannot take back or do over isn't healthy, but neither is forgetting what put you in that position. Live life to the fullest and Thank God for every day you have.
