I want my life back!

Yeah,i agree with you. We have done something wrong that make us regret, but the time had gone, what we can do is to learn lessons to make our future better. One month ago, when i was on summer holiday at home, a big family quarrel broke out. And I was so sad and regretful because i could have avoided it. My grandma was 88 years old this year, and she had a bad hobby of buying a lot of things back home, always inferior quality products, which is often the blasting fuse of a quarrel. One day, I found a bottle of peanut oil bad in the kitchen, and i ignored it as i hadn't seen it. And at supper, we found the food terrible to eat. My dad has a quick and bad temper, and he ran to the kitchen to get why. And finally he also found the bad oil. Then he ran out to shout to the old grandma, because my grandma always like to buy too much things such as 50kg peanut oil, so that the rest oil is easy to go bad. My grandma is also so bad tempered that they just began to quarrel. That was a bad night, and if i had thrown away the bottle of bad oil, nothing would happen. I hated myself, and i hope i can do things better in the future.

Leave the past alone. Move on and learn from whaever misakes you have done. That's life. Goodluck Ellyse!

i think i get what you're saying. being true to yourself and honest in the things you do is what matters. i always like to think its not what you've done in your past its what you're gonna do in your future. everyone has it in them to change no matter what, i've had experiences in my life that would shock the pants off some people, experienced things as a child that i would never let my children experience but the things that have happened are the things that made me the person i am. having a strong partner is a help aswell

Hi, Failure is a condiment that gives success its flavor. You always pass failure on the way to success. When we begin to take our failure non-seriously, it means we are ceasing to be afraid of them. It is of immense importance to learn to laugh at ourselves. Forget past mistake, forget failure, forget everything except what you going to do now and do it.

I think that everything in the live is traced.We make things for good and badly. We must to accept the effects equally with positive feelings.

well i ever fail and it's feel annoying and really dissapointed,,but i really thank because i ever fail because from that condition i try to think deeply about every difference of every human and try to understand what every problem that i get and solve it clearly,and for me experience is the bes teacher that you cant get it in everywhere or buy it in a mall because it's come from yourself

yes we're not perefect but i think we should strive to do our best to the best extent that we can... and yes i have my own share of failures and i know how awful it feels to fail.... nobody wants to fail..... but instead of dwelling in self pity, after i cry it all out, i make sure i stand up again, and start all over again if i have, and still get going...life never stops there.

There have been many times when i wish i could turn back time. So many regrets and mistakes could be corrected. When something in your life is just not right, the path you then follow seems jaded. If you could put everything back into the proper perspective, it could make the difference in how you view your life.

From a discussion I started here, and from all the responses I got, I've learned that failure is a state of mind. Your failure could just be a learning experience and set up for a greater success down the road. Never let it get you down. Although it may sometimes feel the worst, and that you only wish for time to turn back, I'm sure that in the future you could always look back at it and realize that it was just a necessary lesson to get to where you're supposed to be.

I fail in some point of my life too. And I've done so many wrong things in the past also. Yes how I wish I could turn back time to avoid those mistakes but I chose to be realistic that it can never be. So what I do is to take the lessons from it and try not to make the same mistakes again.

Sometimes, bad things do happen not because of what we done, but is fated. We cannot change fate for what has happened but we can take it as an experience and try to avoid the same situation in the future. There are however things that involves proper planning and management to succeed. In this case, you would have to plan and manage well or else if something bad happened, it might be due to your bad planning or management. :D

we are not perfect per we're only human.. but trying our best is on of its ability. they say, never regret but, i do have a few myself. one of those are, i could have been a better university student, with good grades and no take two's... if only i could turn back time...

Hi Ellyse I think you need a time machine to get back to your happy moments or avoiding those sad moments whatever.Don't take it otherwise I am just joking.Time machine can not be possibly used for this stupid kind of things.Anyways I am really happy with the way you have ultimatey got a solution of just doing good to yourself and others.This not only makes you happpy but also warns that sad moments to stay way from you.But yeah sad things cannot be stopped completly you have to face at some point of time.Thats part of life.But we should atleast try to be happy even if we are sad.
