Regret?

Why is it that things should never be regretted??

Regret is such a confusing emotion to me. On one hand I want to be able to say that I have no regrets, but I do. When I woke up this morning so many things I regret were running through my mind. Regret makes me think if I would have done this differently, then my life would be better in some way.

Shoulda, coulda, woulda .. it's all unhealthy I guess.

I remember my 11th grade math teacher telling our class that things happen for a reason, but the reason hasn't revealed itself yet. She told me personally not to let anything deter me from reaching my goals.
By regretting things perhaps I am keeping myself in a bind and not moving on. I am letting my past control me, when I have no control over the past. What I do have control over is my future. In a way I guess it's okay to feel guilty or sad about decisions in the past, but there's no sense in wishing you could take it back because you CAN'T.

LIVE & LEARN!♥

By the way Happy (cookouts & parties & fireworks day) 4th of July!!
