Nothing lasts forever....

I agree wholeheartedly with Marilyn on this, there is no point in regret. At the time of the event, whatever it might have been that changed your life forever; you did exactly what you wanted or needed to do. That was what you chose to do at the time. 

Further down the road, it may not look like the right decision at all, but at that time it was the ONLY decision. So live with it, accept it, celebrate it, it paved the way for what was to come. It may have contributed to the most profound lessons you ever experienced, or it may have led the way to the peace and contentment you have enjoyed. Either way it was right at the time, for YOU.

People inevitably make statements like: "if only I hadn't done/said....." It simply doesn't matter.  Whatever it is that you are lamenting about doing or not doing, don't waste any more of your time on it. You can't change it, it's done. Don't beat yourself up, just let it go and move on.

Live it up, drink it down, and laugh it off. Wow! this is just perfect. This is precisely what we  need to do. Stop worrying, regretting, analyzing, crying and whining, this will only create illness. You really need to find some way of making yourself happy. This is the secret of a long life... happiness. Relieve the tension and bring happiness back into your life. Be grateful that you are here and that tomorrow is another day. 

Stop taking life so seriously. If you do something 'wrong', apologize, if you say something hurtful, ask for forgiveness ... take care of whatever you have done and go forward. That is all you can do ... with as little drama as possible, take the next step, because nothing lasts forever. You have no idea what may take place tomorrow, or even in the next hour; so live, love and enjoy the time you are given.
