you ever wonder what this means? I regret's the fact that i never really listen to you when you were telling me your feelings. I resent that fact that no one really ask me what i want. i regret the fact that i was never on the same page, i resent the fact that i never sat boundaries. The list goes on. Who next what do you regret and resent?|

Right now, I'm in a frame of mind that I don' t have time for regrets and whatever resentments I may have I know there's a point where I have to let go and let God. Take care.

I regret the fact that I've never been a good friend to someone.

I resent the fact that [a certain someone] never gave me the chance.

We may have regrets -- but resentment is "the poison I take to kill you." No one knows we resent them. By resenting someone or something, all we're doing is killing ourselves! We're eating ourselves from the inside, out. It's a slow, painful "death" of our soul. And what is the point?

Isn't it better to get rid of the resentments? Isn't it better to finally give them up - either by praying to our Higher Power (if we have one) to take them away? Or perhaps by just saying it's too much trouble carrying them around anymore because they're too heavy?

Regrets are basically the same -- we can't do a thing about them. Those days are gone, and we can't change what was. But we can change the here and now. We can strive for a better future. Forget the regrets -- don't let them haunt you anymore. They're wasting your time, and hurting your heart.

God bless and take care. Hugs, Lee
