Sometimes you just want this heavy feeling to vanish into thin air . You want to breathe a little fresh. You want to live life a little. You want to free yourself from all the regrets and resentments. Regrets ruin the present. The pain of what if I had done this so this wouldn't have happened or I should have something else to prevent this from happening or I shouldn't have loved someone so deeply to protect myself from this hurt or I shouldn't have let go of that one friend or I should have dreamt of another life for myself or I should have wished for something else and the list goes on . Regrets never ends and the only way to live freely is allowing yourself to forget what happened and accept it wholeheartedly . Regrets and resentments towards yourself can't change anything. It does no good except damaging your soul more and more . Leave your past right there . Things were supposed to happen this way . Even if it was something painful it's an experience and don't repeat the same mistake. Resentment towards yourself is like punishing yourself for something that you couldn't prevent from happening and it had happened. Would it change what happened? No but it'll deprive you of your mental stability. When you want to live freely stop regretting and breath a little.
