Regrets

[banova888]

Do you believe people when they say things like "I don't have any regrets in life" or "I don't believe in having regrets".
Or do you think that it is human nature to have regrets, it's simply whether you choose to dwell on them a lot or a little? And that those people who say the above statements are either not being honest or have managed to convince themselves that they don't have regrets?
What are the regrets that you have?

Regrect not buying HDB Flats when 5-roomers were going for for $100 thousand Singapore dollars.

Happy I did not! because now they are worth less.

Regrets, I've had a few, but then again, too few to mention.
I did, what I had to do, and saw it through, without exemption.
I planned, each charted course, each careful step, along the byway,
and more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Basically, human uphold their dignity too high or another word "Pride", so therefore by saying things like " I dont have or believe having regrets" is just to either to self-consoling or protecting their egos.

I have a colleague take pride above anything else's, deep inside me those like him upholding his pride up the sky is as good as self-defiant for not able to accept a failure in life and to face the truth.

My regret is marrying too fast. Nothing wrong with my wife. I love her very much and still do, even after 18 years of marriage. Its just a regret I have but which I will never admit to.
