I read a beautiful article about letting go of regrets. Do I have regrets in my life? I really can name no major ones. I still get struck by the fear that any given decision will lead to a regret, and the thought alone immobilizes me.
I realized that I operate by an inaccurate belief: that if I am experiencing discomfort, or pain in a situation, or if it is not playing out the way I'd envisioned, the decision must be wrong.
But pain is often a precursor to growth, although not all growth brings pain. And life on earth is and will be trying.
In seeking to avoid all regrets, one may easily lead a regrettable life.
