Regrets

in Freewriters4 months ago

Have you ever thought about what your life could have been if you took that decision?

What if I didn’t go to that school? What if I had started that business? What if my sibling didn’t tell me to stop posting on social media? What if I didn’t date that person? What if I don’t think so less of myself? What if I enjoyed life a little? What if I don’t make money the center of my life? What if I wasn’t an introvert? A whole lot of questions.

Are those regrets? 100% YES. I think I might have had a better life if I didn’t think so much about people’s opinion of me. I’ve lived my life on some moral and societal standards and it has deprived me of a lot of joy.

I’ve had a lot of time to reflect on death of recent and I could not help but wonder if I died right this moment,would anyone say ‘she really enjoyed her life’ or would it be ‘she hasn’t even enjoyed life’ and we all know what the answer would be.

Now,enjoyment has different meanings to everyone,pick your own meaning and make it the center of your life. Life is too short to live in regrets or wallow in your sadness.Live a little.

Buy that dress,go on that trip,start that business,believe in yourself,give love another chance.JUST LIVE.

My name is ADEWOLE PRECIOUS and this is my first writeup here.I hope this would be an interesting journey for us on how to become a better version of you.

Thank you.
