R is for regret

The gap between one's ideal self-image and actual self-image is guilt.
Everytime our thoughts or actions do not bring us closer to our ideal self image, guilt manifests.
I think i took one step away from my ideal self image...

R is for regret. I could have changed something but didn't. The outcome wouldn't have been as such, but I didn't. I listened to the wrong person. I should have been stubborn like I always have been. I gave in to the wrong person on the wrong day. Now I'm paying for it.

Its like a bad song that won't go away, it keeps playing and playing over and over again in my head. Its worst when you know you had to power to make a difference but didn't. You stood by and watched. Now its not going to get out of your head. It compels you to do something. To do something stupid. Not that it makes a difference, but because its a test of theory, do two wrongs make a right?

I know Violence isn't the answer, I chose wrong on purpose.
