About regret

We dread regret. We stress ourselves lest we regret anything; we pretend we have no regrets; the word regret is almost taboo. We think that if we regret anything important, that make us a loser.

Yet to have regrets is more natural than not to. Regret is universal. Since we can never be sure of making the "right" decision, as it is impossible to know all facts and their ramifications, we should not feel ashamed of feeling regret sometimes. We should feel human, owning our vulnerability and limited understanding, and we should move on from there feeling more whole.
