Live Life without Regrets?

I think that it is rather hard to live life without regretting something. It might not be a huge regret that we are haunted by for the rest of our lives and thus something that causes our entire lives to be defined by that huge mistake. However, not all mistakes in life are something that are big and life changing, that can follow us around and cast a shadow over the rest of our life. In many ways, most if not everyone makes them. There are things that are done that make people go "yeah, that might not have been the smartest idea in the world" or "I really wish I had not done that." In many ways we regret and try and right the wrongs of the mistakes. However, is that a good idea? Well if we have learned from the mistakes than sure, it is something to be learned but must people try to correct rather than getting the knowledge that these mistakes bring and strive not to make them again. Most of my life has been lived with any really big regrets. I have my share of mistakes. Anyone who has done anything in life would have done so. However, I felt I have learned and grown from them, instead of being stuck being defined them. So I think it's not "to live life without regrets" but rather "to live life without being completely haunted by your mistakes and obsessing over them."

People who seek to "Live life without regrets" can only succeed in that endeaver if they are a sociopath without a conscience or suffer some form of mental illness. Only a person without any conscience could have no regrets for all of their actions. Therefore, I certainly do not seek "To live my life without regrets", but rather seek to learn from my mistakes.

So true, when we make mistakes, errors, or sins, we should regret what we did. We should correct the mistake if we can. We should ask forgiveness and then move on. We will make mistakes but we have to move on. If we continue to do our best then in the end we will not regret the way we have lived and who we are and what we became.

I would like to have a life without regrets; who does'nt want to ? There are some people who dono bother to even think about what they have done they are so lucky since whatever they do ,they do i right.

I agree with that! I want to have live that I don't regrets but its not easy, You always regret something, wishing that you do thing differently, it not easy to ease that guilty feeling.

I don't agree to this fragment. Humans are not born mentally/psychologically perfect thus making us subject to regrets & mistakes. We are learning everday! And everyday it happens, from tiny regrets to gigantic ones. Even by parking your car, you'd sometimes say - i should have taken that first vacant lot or that one over there,now someone got it behind you & you are left still searching. Or when you fail a test -you'd regret not studying harder to pass. Or when you've raised your voice, scolded your child or have blown an opportunity. With so many other daily moves we make ~there is always regret(s) that tangle themselves along. To live Life is like a play, we test here we test there, we try this we try that. Its all choices of everything and taking a choice makes one grow & learn with or without regrets.

I am the person which makes mistake again and again. I don't like this habit. Every time I think that I will not make mistake again but it happen. I can't control it. Actually I love a woman but she doesn't love me. When I came to know it. I don't want to love her but I love her with deep of my hear. I don't want to like her.

I often do mistakes though my conscious says this is not right you may be hurting some one but still i will be talking in the same manner. After sometimes i will be thinking what i said... this is not correct and i will ask for the excuse with the god and requesting the god this situations should not be repeated to me. (i pray god that " o god please save me from such situation") Still sometimes it will repeat and life is moving. As age goes on i learned now to bear patiently and wait.. and not to be wild and make the situation mess.

Yes, dear i will agree with this statement.
