Regrets
Is the sum of all regrets in the world 0, do you think? Is it possible that each one could cancel out an equal and opposite regret?
- “I wish I’d loved him” vs. “I wish I hadn’t”
- “I could have done x” vs. “I could have done y” vs. “I could have not done x/y”
- “I should have told her” vs. “I really shouldn’t have”
- “I regret slacking a year of my life away, I regret being mediocre, I regret being left behind, I regret leaving myself behind” vs?
I want to find someone who can cancel out these regrets. I know they’re foolish and entirely pointless. I hate that I’ve put myself in a position where they actually don’t seem that way.
