You sit and wonder, have you really missed the chances that were once around? Chances that could've change the way things are happening at the present moment? Chances that could've bring a total different outcome with things that are about to happen in the future. You stop to ponder, was it worth looking back at what you could've done to make things different now, are these regret based decision made, are the regrets worth regretting.

We say, regretting is not worth anything at all, for the present is what matters most, present is what we can change, to sculpture a better future up ahead. People also say, regrets are factors that will hold us back from moving forward. Regrets pull us into a dark corner, and it only depends on how strong a person is before this person can stand up again and walk towards the light once again.

Regrets, is a reminder on how we should not make the same mistakes we did back then, mistakes that would make the individual stuck at a point of life, watching the while world passing by, but they are searching frantically for the strength to follow the flow, but the strength seemed to have sapped out by some evil dark force. That, results with the persons being stuck there at a stand still point.

We were forced to study history. The government tells us, it is necessary as it would expose to us about the treacherous past, a reminder that we should not do anything stupid to allow the past from repeating itself. Life tells us to look forward. But humanity is making us look back. Which reminds me if what we learnt in psychology, the id, ego, and superego. Id is the devil, who wants its satisfaction fulfilled, superego is the angel, telling us to do what is right from wrong, ego, is the human body, carrying out decisions, based on both the thoughts of the devil and the angel. In this matter, devil tells us to be selfish, and look forward, forgetting the past. And the angel, telling us to be conscious, look at the past before deciding.

As much as one chooses not to allow the past to resurface, the past will always return to hunt a living soul regardless of the situation. And when it does resurface, it will lockdown that person, being unable to make a decision at all. For it seems that whatever decision made, would return and haunt you like how the previous regrets made.

One may say that they do not have a single regret in their life. Well, truth is, nobody is perfect, mistakes will appear every now and then. If the person knows how to stand tall and overcome that mistake made, he or she will learn so much more that the experience becomes priceless.

Regrets are good. They help a person improve in whatever they do. Mistakes are the cause of regrets. Life throws us all over the place, it tears us apart from time to time. Life is also unexpected. Which makes it interesting. As life proceeds, light will always be there, we just need to want it.
