It is what it is.
Slowly recovering from the flu has given me a lot of time to think over the past five days.
My thoughts keep circling around the idea of regret....
Its funny how we can eventually regret something if i doesn't turn out the way we had hoped or planned, but in retrospect we would never even dream of regretting it if it did turn into a happily ever after.
And we don't regret it in that space between it occurring and the realisation that it isn't going to turn out the way we had hoped.
Why do we even waste our time on regret when what has occurred is done and dusted?
Its almost a selfish act - that just because something didn't turn out the way we had hoped we change that experience from a positive into a negative and then spend countless minutes, hours and days over analysing and over thinking it.
I try not to regret the choices i have made and am trying to dive into life with a more open mind than what i have had in the past and I'm guessing this is a process rather than a decision - I'm just hoping my mind can become more at peace with the decisions i make regardless of the thought process of people around me.
After all i have always been told from those i love most that i am my own worst enemy.
