I don't know. "The ONLY things" seems a little too matter of fact and doesn't leave room for anything else. But then people always bust out
with "I don't have any regrets," which I think is BS, but eh.

True Sparkle. The "only" kind of leaves no room for wiggle. Because I'm sure people did stupid ass things and regret doing them.

No. Those are not the ONLY things in life people regret. There are a lot of people that regret some of the risks they've taken.

Sounds like it was written by someone who either never took risks or is trying to justify bad decisions that were made on the fly.

Like hell you don't lol. Remember when you ate that hamburger and got food poisoning? I'm pretty sure you regret that. |

That is true haha. I guess that they are saying it in the bigger sense. Like they don't regret the major decisions that they made in life because
they are happy where they are right now

i agree with it to a point. you could also take a risk and have it end in disaster and then you'd regret you ever took it LOL
that quote is a kind of a clusterfuck when you think about it. |

Yea true. Like lets say you take a risk and go sky diving with your friend. You friend's parachute doesn't open and (s)he dies. I'm sure that
you'd regret ever going sky diving then!

"In the end, we only regret the chances we didn't take and the decisions we waited too long to make."
I like that. I think we should always try. |
