I need some help
What's worse, regret for the things you've done. Or for the things you haven't?
I can feel mine building, regrets for things I have never done. But while I feel the mounting ache, I have no idea how to remedy the problem. Thoughts?
Damn, I think taking to the stage for the first time and having an article rave about you as the highlight of the evening suggests you oughta just start crossing off everything you've yet to do. Me thinks you are more talented than you know. Have fun, there's plenty of time for regret later.
I believe regret for things you didn't do is worse (probably because I am in that category far more than the opposite)...but then every once in a while you get to a stage when you just need that gut wrenching feeling of doing something you've never done or are scared to do to remind you that you are very much alive - and to remind you that it is the things that scare you the most that are most worth it in the end. Besides, most things you think are a huge deal or regret, won't matter in the slightest a year... even a month from now. In other words, live it up and forget regret. haha Co <3
