minus-squaredohpaz42@lemmy.worldMlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·5 days agoI love this sentiment. And I agree wholeheartedly. I try to reverse those though: anxiety is the fear the past will repeat itself, and regret keeps me from making the same mistakes again. It’s twisted, but it’s working.
minus-squaregastroglizzy@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·5 days agoI’ve never regretted anything I’ve done. I only regret the things I didn’t do, the thing I didn’t say, the feelings I didn’t express. My mistakes were required to grow and learn. They’re part of me and don’t define me; we’re all better than our worst mistakes.
