Have you ever one something you really regretted?
I don't mean a thing like wearing the wrong clothes to school on the first day....
I mean something.... Well.... Regretable....
I was just wondering....
Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...

Ever want to try and make things right, but just couldn't find the words?

Sometimes you have to recognise that nothing can make thinsg right. It depends on the box you opened. Maybe a major problem needs a major gesture? I'm really thinking aloud.
Yup, I've done some things I regretted instantly. They could not be undone, and I had to live with tyhe consequences

Things we wish we could take back. Word we wished we had never spoken. And even typed messages we wish had never gone out.
For these types of regrettable actions, we should step back and consider our words BEFORE we put them put their. Words can hurt, lets not hurt each other.
For actions, like sharing intimacy with th wrong person, buying somthing that turns out to be junk, quitting a job that you really loved, for these types of regrets I have one creed.
Regret the things you have done, never regret what you havn't done.
Life is to be lived, the good and the bad. Sitting on the sidelines in life is no way to live.
Peace and love to you,
Kevin

We call it "Foot in Mouth Disease" down here. I think the worst part of it is when you say it and then it just hangs there in the air. You want it back so bad but nothing's gonna make that happen. The only thing you CAN'T do is let it go. People forgive you, but they never forget.
The only way I've ever found to make something better, if it means that much to you is to make the person you hurt know that you hurt too. Tim called it a grand gesture......and that works for me.
I worked and worked for weeks with a kid on his skateboarding. I had loaned him my extra old board but he just couldn't get anything right. I had had a really harsh day and when he asked me for the millionth time if he was better, I just yelled, "Fin, you totally suck dude". The world froze. I wanted it back. He was crying and I wanted it back.
I apologized but I knew it was worthless and I was hurting almost as much as he was. I wrote a note and stuck it on my new Kicker and gave it to him. "Maybe the old board lost it's magic...Take the Kicker and let's try again."
He won't forget but he did try again and I got a chance to right the wrong. Just never let something you did or something you said just hang there. Fix it if you can.
