Regret

Regret is the downfall of this generation and every one before it. We don't experience so many things because of the fear of regret. Embarrassment, sadness, jealousy, anger. All of these emotions and more come from regret. And it's not because of ourselves, it's because of everyone around us. We fear that they will shame us. Try to make us feel less than ourselves. And for that reason we will be regretful because we thought we could do something.

We thought that everything was going alright. But society had to put us down. Tell us we're not good enough. Tell us we've failed. And we will regret our decisions, because they weren't society's decisions. We will start to shame ourselves. Then other people. And before you know it, there is an endless cycle of shame and regret. Something that society built to keep life interesting. But to also turn people insane.

Make them strive for acceptance and perfection. Pushing people away, because asking for help makes you weak. Because the things we say are not appropriate for the ears of the wiser and more intelligent. Society has formed regret to make people follow their rules. To make them learn exactly what perfection is. Because a perfect society is a society with no regrets.

Well, that's what they think atleast. But once something is set into place, it cannot be removed. Regret will always stand tall, looming over us. Just another bad habit. Another horrible feeling that one must fight. Another decision that could effect the course of history.

Regret is the downfall of this generation and every one before. But also everyone after it. Because of society we will be regretful for all of eternity.
