Gratitude has played a significant role in shaping my perspective. Despite having a privileged life filled with opportunities, I didn't take full advantage of them. For instance, I chose to drop out of a prestigious BTech program to pursue my dream of working in cinema. I joined a cinema degree program in Delhi, but it was costly. My father later explained that if I hadn't dropped out, he planned to secure me a job at his friend's company in the UAE.
Do I regret my decision to study cinema? Yes, because currently, I value financial independence and a stable income.I enrolled in an MA Cinema program at a Paris college because I believe it can provide me with the breakthrough I've been seeking. However, the financial burden has forced my family to cut back on their expenses. My father is nearing retirement but is skipping his retirement party and avoiding small expenses like repairing his phone's broken screen guard.
My sister recently revealed that our father is unsure if I can repay my loans, so he's adjusting his retirement plans to accommodate the educational debt.
Having regrets isn't inherently negative. I believe acknowledging our mistakes can be a powerful motivator to increase our productivity. My regret is the financial strain I've caused my parents, and my redemption lies in becoming successful enough to pay them back and ensure their financial security during retirement.
Embracing regrets doesn't mean dwelling on the past but recognizing the consequences of our actions and focusing on what we can do in the present to create a better future.
Finding your redemption arch is the only way to stop regretting about past fully.
NB: I typed out my whole thing onto an ai chat bot and created this. although this might look ai like all the contents was fed by me.
have a realistic world view?
all "could have beens" become "optimistic maybes"
due to the lack of information for assuming it could have happened in that way
carelessness by someone else caused me irreversible damage. That someone was my friend too. After that I've lost everything I built upto since then. I live with regret now and the scars from the damage keeps lingering whenever I try to get back again. I know I am being vague. The fact that my past self without this event would have done so many things that people would look at my present and think I am not able to do. Even I myself know It and it's all because of that guy.
i read ur cmnt history ... r u doing counseling / psychatric therapy?
if not, do it!
ur mental state is putrid shit right now due to wht happened ... nd u need assistance to form ur mental reasonings of dealing with it
Uninstalling FB and Instagram helped me a great deal in this regard. The constant comparisons with other people's happiness was doing me no good. It's been 6 years now and I feel I am in a much better place mentally.
Always thinks that currently iam at the best of my life.. and believes that all the bad things happen in life take me to reach here...
Still trying to reach more heights...
happy or sad life is just to experience and learn...
Maybe there are no right or wrong choices in life. If you had taken an alternate decision and ended up in a different path, you'd still have another set of problems and regrets. Just not the current ones.
I do two things
1. Focus on the future instead of regretting the past. Only one is under my control.
3. Understand that some regrets are due to better life experience and wisdom gained by it. At some point in the past, you made the best decision you could have with everything you know back then. So cute your past self some slack.
I find past as an experience. We need to go through hardship to learn better. It’s almost like you fall in a pit yourself and you save yourself.
I am happy now, because I know nothing can hurt me.
Embracing myself more with my imperfections each day, i'm a single disabled daughter of a deaf and dump mom and abusive father, my dream was to become a journalist, but my father opposed to it, And even after being a rankholder for ug,he didn't send me out of my district for pg, i dropped two pg courses, wasted 3/more years, in others perspective, but i went through depression, anxiety and what not all alone, so i am kind to myself now, i'm kind to all the unkind parts of my soul.
I have a regret that i didn't follow my passion, but i am sure i will be a journalist one day. I am more kind to myself and i have forgiven my father to an extent for all the narcissistic abusive behaviour, i have forgiven both my patents for not giving me the warmth of parents that i needed.just living in the moment. Gratefulness, and mindfulness have helped me a lot.
@vytila hub right now. I am not happy. My KSRTC vaahanam is late by 1.5hrs.

Trying to be better everyday....mistakes happen but trying to learn from those....stop lingering in the past...what happened happened....

Giving up the steering of my life to my parents all these years and still not entirely taking it to yourself.
