Life always has a funny way of teaching us lessons. That's why someone says that life is like a school, the more we leave, the more we learn. Also life is like a bycle, for you to move forward, you must keep paddling. Most times we don't get a manual on how to handle some situations, we do things anyhow without feeling guilty and still feel like we're doing the right thing. But later, when we look back on how the whole things started, the current situation of things, then we begin to regret in one or two ways. We began to ask ourselves some questions, like why did i do it this way, That's just life for us.
For me, one thing i still regret on was the opportunity i got through a friend of mine immediately i finished my secondary school back then. I got introduced to a business where i'll be fortunate to learn some tech skills and at the same time, be doing an independent business,and this two businesses are good business that has a great potential, they are businesses that has future, they are business i can rely on in the future and most important they are business that can give me rest of mind in the future. But i missed the opportunity because of my indecision back then, i was a boy then and this makes me to still be leaving under my parents and decision taking was not something only me can make then.
I was depending on my parents to decide for me, i thought my parents will decide what best for me, but i never know that, my life is my life, i never know that my parents know nothing about the opportunity, so my parents stopped me in joining the business back then. I thought it was the right thing then, I though my parents made the best decision for me by not allowing me to do the business then, I never know it was because of ignorance, that's what made my parents to stop me. Today when i see my old friend now, things has changed for him, he lives an extra-vagance life now, he lives a life i can not leave in the next 10 years. This was my biggest regret so far.
The experienced taught me to learn how to take charge of my life by myself, the experience taught me not to use my life to please other and the experience also thought me not to rely on anybody, either my parents or spouse. It let me to know that the higher i rely on people, the lesser i succeed in life. Today, i know better and if i had a second chance, i'll definately do things right, i'll definately see myself as man not a boy, i'll definately learn how to make my own personal decisions, especially when it involves my own life journey. And i'll definately see myself as the architect of my own destiny and to end it, i'll definately, be smart and wise in thinking and making decisions.
Regret are not all bad, they shape us, build us , and remind us of how va we've come, and most importantly they prepare us for the future. So why i can't change the past, i'm grateful for thr wisdom it gave me and i'll keep moving forward.
