The Asylum Confessions: Family Matters (The Asylum Confession Files, #2)

by Jack Steen

If you live with regrets, then you’re not truly living. You’re reacting in order to not live with more regrets.

Wake up each day determined to be the best person you can be. Go to sleep each night knowing you did the absolute best you could and that it’s too late to change actions you’ve already taken. Determine to be absolute in your decisions, and you’ll never experience a moment of regret. Regret can destroy dreams, did you know that? When all you do is focus on the things that went wrong in your life, you miss out on what could be happening, the good things.

If you’re grieving, you need to let that grief sweep over you, wash you, as if you were a pebble of sand adrift along the shoreline. Eventually, the strength of the water will pull you in until you are surrounded, and the very grief you thought was drowning you is, instead, supporting you.
