Regret and choice

We regret making the wrong choice. Its part of being human, which includes not making the best choice sometimes. Sometimes, we regret more over a 'wrong' choice when we can easily envision making the 'right' choice. So how do we truly make choices? And why do some of use seem to be making wrong choices and foolish decisions which lead to later regret?

Regret is truly one of the most difficult to deal with emotion. When regret strikes, it seems all consuming. It consumes the entire mind at once into total darkness. Immersed in the all consuming darkness, you forget the big picture. That all is not lost. Never will be. 

What's done is done. Best option is now to wait it out and avoid making things worse. Sometimes, that's all we can do. To avoid making things worse. Regret is part of the human drama. It strikes suddenly sometimes, totally unexpected.

Truly fascinating emotion. It reminds you of your fallibility. But this too shall pass.

And in the passing lies redemption.

Ultimately, all is one and nothing can truly harm.

God bless you.
