Somewhere in your life, you find yourself wondering why you had made the wrong decision... why you had committed a mistake... why you had chosen to do this instead of doing that...
Life can be so tricky. It can offer you dilemmas... problems... and many other confusing events. And as human beings, it is really hard for us to be in such situations. It is hard for us to make decisions at once. We need more time... more space...
I once experienced myself in a situation where I chose what I thought was right even if most people say that it was a wrong choice and I should have chosen the other one. At first, my decision turned out to be right. Everything was fine.. everything seemed to be perfect. Yes, there were lots of challenges but I had passed it all for I thought it was worth fighting for. But after a while, something went wrong.. it was just a like a storm that passed by, and everything... everything was ruined. Now, everything's gone and I have lots of regrets. Yes, I admit, there's so many things I wish I didn't do.
If only I could bring back time... if only I can go back to where it all had started... I should have chosen the other one; I should have listened to everybody's advice. But it was far too late for that realization; no one could bring back time. There's nothing else I could ever do to bring it back.
Now, what I can do is that to make things right. I must correct my mistakes. It's true that I can't bring back time... but I can surely be careful and make correct decisions the next time around. I should start all over again. That decision sure did a lot of changes in me. I admit I hadn't notice that it was already making my life miserable.. miserable than before. It was again too late when I had noticed that.
I was still thankful besides these circumstances. Why?... It is because I learned a lot of things through them.I learned that I must first think twice or even thrice before making my decision because it was not that easy to choose especially when both choices seem right. I had also learned that sometimes... i mean most of the times... the people around you could help in your decision making because they also know what's best for you and that they want you to have the best of everything.
Yes, I tell you... regrets are most likely to happen when it's already to late and they come when you least expected them...
So make up your mind; be sure of your decisions so that in the end... there will be no regrets... only successes... no sorrows... only laughters.... :)
