Another thing we must leave behind is regret, all of our Why-did-I’s and Why-didn’t-I’s. Why did I get so caught up in that conversation? Why was I compelled to tell the truth, truth, truth? Why couldn’t I remain in the background and just let them think what they will? Why didn’t I speak up, speak out, speak more often? Why didn’t I tell them what I really thought sooner? How could I have let that go on for so long? If you felt too weepy, too chatty, too stoic, too something other than what you imagine you should have been, this you can leave behind.
