LIFE! consists of four letters but we all know that it is a BIG WORD, right? Life is us. life is where we are at. life, is what we do. and mistakes are inevitable. we can't run away from it. but have you ever thought of making a decision that whatever you do and whatever happens after doing such a thing,you won't regret it? No Regrets have been my principle for some years now. and it helps a lot. it gives me more positivity than before. It also helps me in accepting bad situations faster. why? because i told my self no regrets, i will face every consequence of my decision.

Life is a short word with a big meaning. People live in regret all the time, but they don't see that through our mistakes we learn, we grow, and we become who we are. You should never regret anything because without those somethings, your life might've turned out way different. You have to trust it's fate. You are where god planned for you to be.

Yes, I made a mistake but after doing so realized that I really had no regrets because I was able to be with my precious granddaughter. I moved to New Mexico at 50 years old to start a new life. I was tired of New York and needed a change. My daughters had moved out to New Mexico so I felt the need to be there to be with my new granddaughter. So I sold my home in New York and moved to NM. I brought a house there and settled down. I was there for my granddaughter for four years which I knew was a blessing for me. If I had stayed in New York I wouldn't had bonded with my granddaughter the way I did. She is my life today even though we live thousands of miles away now. I moved in 2010 to Puerto Rico. I didn't like NM that much due to it being so dry, but I had no regrets being there because of my granddaughter. Now I get to skype and I visit every year for a couple of months. In fact I'm leaving at the end of this month to spend some time with my girls.

that's good for you. everything happens for a reason as they say. and if we reflect in every decision we make, we will be able to see that there is always a purpose on why we do every action. enjoy your vacation with your girls.

I'm glad to hear that you stay positive and upbeat about your life. That is a great way to view life and the things that happen in our life. We don't want to be overwhelmed with regret or about the things that happen in our life.

This sounds like a great way to stay focused on happiness. Happiness has little room for regrets. Good for you. I wish everyone could be devoted to having no regrets. Life sometimes makes us ask ourselves why we do the things we do..

Hi, you are right. Life is a four letter word but it has big meaning. You have very positive appraoch towards life. we have to struggle for living and we have to face many problems and we try to solve problems with whatever we have. Sometimes we make mistakes or take wrong decision. But we should not regret for it. We should try to learn from our mistakes without regret.

Good to hear about your policy. We don't get any benefits with our worries or regrets. Better to avoid it. Mistakes are quite common to everyone. We must learn lessons from our faults. Avoid regrets and enjoy each and every moment in your life.
