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 we let down a friend. Some of us escape pains and regret by making the right choices. Some of us have little time for regret as they are looking forward to the future. Sometimes we have to fight to come to terms with the past. And sometimes we bury our regret and promise to change our ways. But our biggest regrets are not for the things we did but for the things we didn't do. Things that we didn't say because they save someone we care about. Especially when we can see the dark storm that's heading their way.
Sometimes pain becomes a huge part of your life that you expect it to always be there because you can't remember a time in your life that it wasn't. But then one day you feel something else. Something that feels wrong but only because it's so unfamiliar. Then at that moment, you realize that you're happy. Happiness comes in many good forms: in the company of good friends, in the feeling, you get when you make someone else's dreams come true, or your promise of hope renewed. It's okay to let yourself be happy cause you never know how fleeting that happiness will be.
