you know how people say...live life with ‘no regrets’. no regrets?
really? people still say that, or rather, people still believe that?
to live without regrets is ridiculous, it would in essence be saying that every decision you had made in the past was either the correct one, it was stupid and you don’t care, or you had a lobotomy and are lethargic.
we have to live with regret, it haunts some of us every day, for others we drowned it in substance, entertainment, or preoccupation. making bad decisions is a part of life, but we learn from them and we
move on, constantly aware of our weakness and trying at all costs to avoid it. to say ‘no regrets’ is to fail flat on our face stand up, throw our fist and cheesy mantra in the air and fail again with no regard for our own human dignity or responsibility.
i just want you to look your parents in the face and right after you tell them you're pregnant - yell ‘no regrets!’. or better yet when your at the doctors and he says ‘i am so sorry i have bad news about something you have contracted’ you get on the examining table and yell ‘no regrets’ then march out of his office singing a clash song.
so learn from what you have done wrong, after all who cares that you messed up! we all do! it is what happens from this day forth that matters.
to error is human, to say no regrets afterwards and do the same thing over again is
just stupid.
