Have you ever thought about your "what-ifs" , "should haves" in life? What if you have done this thing before , or you should have done this decision so now you dont have to regret what happened? Did that ever cross your mind too? like in love for example, what if you stayed with that man, what if you loved him? maybe it would be different now right? i know its kinda weird but its just that, sometimes it crosses my mind. but dont get me wrong, i dont regret any moment of my life because this molded me to be who i am now. i take my challenges constructively because these made me a stronger person.

I have my share of those too. I made many mistakes in the past in many aspects of my life- family, friends, lovelife, school. If I had known better, I wouldn't have committed them. In my past relationships, I should not have hurt the guys who were so good to me. It's not that I wish I am still with any of them, for I am very happy in my current relationship. It's just that I should have ended the relationships in much better ways.
That is just an example of my regrets in life. Sometimes they cross my mind too. But I know that though I learned from these mistakes, thinking about them and dwelling in the past would only make me sad. So whenever they cross my mind, I try to brush them away and think of the "I WOULDs" instead. :)

i know what you mean . everybody thinks about the what if's .. like i wonder what my life would have been like if i had moved abroad long time ago i would've probably been a totally different person but then again i wouldn't have met my boyfriend who has influenced how i am today
