The next post will the 200th on this blog (although for sure this blog has been in service for more than 200 days), so I'm pretty hyped up for that. It's hard to believe that this blog turned from a lame account of my day to day life to a pretty cool blog (I do have to say so myself). I spent some time a few days looking ago and realizing how much I had developed as a person and how my ideas and projects failed and sprouted.
Anyways, for post number 199, I'm just planning to do a post slightly centered on the whole idea of just regret and just going for it.
One of those topics that I haven't really touched on is regret. I've had a lot of regrets in life and they always leave me thinking, "What if...?" The reason why I'm talking about regret all of the sudden is because I'm helping out a friend with problems. Not going to delve completely into details since I don't know if this friend of mine would like having a decently sized audience reading her story. Anyways, this story involves the possibility of regret in the future, so the message I just want to get out to EVERYBODY (and by everybody I sincerely mean EVERYBODY) is to just take the chance. You never know what's going to happen if you don't try. I'm almost 100% sure (not going to say 100% since you know, things happen) that 20 years from now, somebody will be thinking, "What if I had told that person I had feelings for him/her?"
I just hate seeing a person with regret, because I know that person can't do anything about regret. What's happened has happened and that person just can't do anything about it but try and fix whatever happened.
A very good author once wrote, "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened." But you'll never be able to smile because you never did anything to make anything happen (that author by the way was Dr. Seuss).
It's Hard To End This Post
It really is difficult to end a post, especially when I know that the next post will be the 200th and I need to seriously get a good follow up post. I have no idea what I will talk about. Completely no idea. I guess something's going to have to happen between now and the start of my next post.
Anyways, I'm feeling like a 10. I had some fun at St. John's and now I'm talking with my closest friends. Catch you in the next post.
