Regret

We as humans have desires, in which case, regret comes in 2 forms. Regret for not having our desire fulfilled or for having fulfilled the desire. There could be more forms that I might be missing out on but today I want to focus on just these two aspects because they're bothering me.

My life is completely based on not having to regret but unfortunately things hardly ever go my way. Which is why I am here. Because I regret, I regret some choices and some choices I wish I would've made.

Back when I was 13, I had this realisation that I don't want to regret anything in life. The day I die, I will die a happy man because I would've done everything on my bucket list. Fast forward to 2016, here I am, still inevitably regretting. I can't escape it. No matter what I do, everytime regret comes back to me in some or the other form.

I don't know if it is just me or if there are others in the world like me who think about emotions so seriously. I am in deep shit. I want to be free from it but I can't. I wish life could be simpler so I could step out of my house each day, no guilt, no fear, nothing.

At the end of it all, what I think is, the more we think about regret, the more we end up regretting all the choices we will, have or had made.

Thank you for reading,
Stay tuned.
