I say give me regret, as long as i can keep the good memories too.

Regret comes in all shapes and sizes. Some are small like when we do a bad thing for a good reason. Some are bigger like when you let down a friend. Some of us escape the pain of regret by making the right choice. Some of us have little time for regret because we're looking forward to the future. Sometimes we have to fight to come to terms with the past, and sometimes we bury our regret by promising to change our own ways.
But, our biggest regrets are not for the things we did - but, for the things we didn't do. Things we didn't say that could've save someone that we care about.


As I sit here and watch the 20 Most Famous Hollywood Murders on E!, I can't help but think about what kind of regret and remorse these killers must be feeling by now. Or do they feel anything at all? Do we become numb to these feelings over time or do they simply fade away, leaving us with nothing but a mere memory of what was? Any way you spin in, we all have regrets. We've all done things we aren't proud of and sometimes it is easier to bury those feelings and try to go on with life as best as you can. We're only human, we're survivors, and by nature that is what we are supposed to do - make the best out of any situation, good or bad. I like to think that the mistakes of my past have somehow shaped my future, right now. They say we learn from our mistakes, but I'm not sure that is true. I can tell you right now that I've made the same mistakes twice, hell even four times over, and I still can't seem to stop wearing my heart on my sleeve. It is also said that we don't realize a significant moment in our lives while it is happening.. I believe this to be true. How many moments in your life can you look back and pick out the moment when everything changed? Scary isn't it? How much your life can change in one hour - one day even. In spite of all of the regret, the hurt, and awful memories, there are the good memories too. Things and people and places I couldn't imagine my life not being there, or knowing that person. People shape our lives in a way that we don't understand until we take a look back a notice all the positive or not so positive influences that they had on us and our lives.


My most listened to today is If This Was A Movie by Taylor Swift. Listen to it here.
