Is It okay to regret your choices?

Hello everyone ,


My name is Arnav .

Today is a very normal day of my life like other days but in the morning when I was scrolling my pinterest i came up with a quote that is "Never regret something that once made you smile" so I liked it and saved it and continued scrolling down after sometime. I put my phone aside and did my other work but when I went to my evening walk suddenly this quote pops up in my head and I start thinking about that after thinking about that sometime, I came up with some different types of answers and situations.

Suppose you are in high school , you have many friends , loving parents , a cute pet and a boyfriend/girlfriend , in short, you have a perfect teenage life and when you grow up and get a job in another country and you don't talk to your friends and you broke up with your girl/boy and now when you sit alone, you spent some quality time with yourself and you feel how alone you are right now but suddenly an old memory of your life and you felt that memory with happiness and you smile so I think this is called a good memory but what if when you love somebody and he/she cheated on you , will you still feel the same way ? I think no , you wouldn't and even if you would feel the same but when you realise about hatred about the reason of breakup, you feel sad and even this is also possible that you feel regret about your decision of your relationship, but apart from this if you have memories, then you also have good happy memories and this is not possible that you can't think about them.

Okay, let's just take another example: suppose you are in your college and your friends came up with a plan of a trip to the mountains and you think that if you think you would refuse then you got some extra time for study, to prepare for your upcoming class test but on the other hand, you also miss a long life happy memory or having great fun with your friends so you decided to go to that trip. You and your friends had great fun; you guys made long life memories; experience different types of new things but wait after the trip you fell ill.

So you went to your doctor and he checked you and went through some tests and he told you something that is totally unbelievable : you have a very rare disease that has led you to death and you just can't believe that shit so you asked him then why didn't I've had any kind of symptoms and he came with an answer ; he said to you that do you have any recent visit of anywhere and your answer is yes and he said i think this is the reason and you are shocked by hearing this and you are like , how is this possible, what the hell is happening here? You asked the doctor and he said look , you've had these problems even though you didn't notice any symptoms but believe me if you didn't go to this trip , moreover you have , what a year extra of your life but not more than that but by the recent trip of yours, you have changed your body's condition and now you have only 3 months.

Here is the condition: now you have two options: 1) you can feel sad, why you went on this trip; this is all happening because of that or, 2) you positively think that however you have to face this situation today or tomorrow so you just don't pressurize yourself.


The thing is, there is nothing to regret for your decision because you took them for yourself not for anybody else so if they made you laugh , smile or happy , no matter what happened in the future, you don't have to regret your past decisions but to worry enough to change your future.

Her Whisper in the Wind

For days, her face kept flashing before my eyes — a girl I’ve never met, yet felt deeply connected to. He remembered her the moment he saw her, though he had never met her in the waking world. She appeared in his mind first as a vision, ethereal and luminous, her presence like sunlight spilling gently across a quiet room. Long hair, dark as the night sky, framed a face pale and delicate, yet alive with depth. Her eyes were oceans, pulling him in with an invisible force, holding unspoken stories, promises, and a softness that both calmed and unsettled him. Every small movement — the subtle sway of her shoulders, the gentle jingle of her payals — felt like a secret rhythm, an uncharted melody meant only for him to hear. He could feel her before he saw her, like an echo lingering in the corners of his mind. That feeling — quiet, tender, almost sacred made him realize that she wasn’t just a character in a dream; she was a part of him, or at least a mirror of the part he had always longed t...

  A simple day of My 2 Different life  Hey, it's me. Yeah, you don't know me, and I don't know you. But here you are, reading my blog—ta-da! I'm quite happy about this, too, 'cause it's my first digital blog, so you can understand my excitement. Anyway, let’s get back to the topic... When I was a child, I used to be amazed by those people who studied late into the night, like 10-12 hours a day. I thought, how could they do that? But here I am now, studying 8-10 hours a day. The thing is, everything we used to marvel at when we were younger becomes normal when we’re the ones in that situation, where someone else used to be, and we were amazed by them. So, it’s like I have a dual personality. Let me explain: I live in a city (Indore) where I study, and whenever I get holidays, I go back to my home. So, when I’m at my home, I’m one person, and when I’m in Indore, I’m someone else. First, let’s talk about me at home: When I’m at home, I wake up early, around 5 or 6...
