Regrets

"Do you have any regrets in your life?"

"If you're given a chance, what would you want to change in the past?"

"If you can start over, will you do xxx?"

Do you ever get these kind of questions?

Have you the answer to it?

But the fact is we know, time travelling is not possible, at least not yet. We cannot reverse time when something is done...

When someone died they won't come back to life. Its a fact we all have to learn to accept.

But of course that's a a figurative question, you can imagine, but if I'm given the question I really have nothing I want to change in my past.

Everything in the past brought me to where I am now, it made who I am now. I may not be perfect but I wouldn't want it in any other way.

Sure, I can be better than now, but I won't say I want to change something in the past so I can become better, I'd want to work better in the future to be better. Instead of mourning over what could've been, I want to move on and make future.

Talk about myself a little.

I was never the studious type of student. Sure, I could have gotten better results if I studied back then. I'm not the brightest students out there, but I am pretty sure I can do better in my results if I put in more effort. I didn't. I simply studied as much as I wanted, or my concentration span can get me. I really hate sitting in front of the desk reading and memorizing, doing exercise that I have no interest in at all. I HATE.

I listened to what I could in class and I read a little, still, as much as I can and find necessary for my exams. I would say I managed well throughout my academic life... I'm not the top students but I get by...

If I'm given the chance again, would I study more so I'll get a better result? Hell no. I'll still be like this, I'll still enjoy my life, I'll do what I find necessary. I didn't study as hard and I am who I am now, it brought me to who I am now. I am not a bookworm (totally not looking down on people who love books!) I don't lock myself up studying and don't socialize at all, I know things that are out of the textbooks, I met people... I'm pretty happy with how things are for me now...

My life's not perfect, I know, I'll try and make it better, but it's my life... Don't tell me what I could've done, what I should do to make it better. Advises are great, thank you, but don't expect me to follow or force them on me when I clearly did not ask for them.

I live by the mindset "I will do something and then regret it later than not doing something and regret that I didn't do it." If I am to regret, I'll do it THEN regret. Rather than regret, it's a lesson to me, after doing it I will know what's the consequences.

Of course, I'm not saying you should kill someone first then regret later, nor that you should try drugs then regret... But you know, if you want to go on try get a plane ticket to a country you know nothing about and have an adventure there, I'll say why not~ If you dare to.

Sometimes, don't think too much of the possible consequences and be scared, look forward to it. We don't live forever anyway, we will die someday, why not make the fullest out of the time we have now.
