I stumbled across a page about regrets on cracked.com. It heralded 20 things worth regretting, which led me to think about the things you should never regret. I disagree with a lot of what they have to say. I don’t think regret is a sensation (if you can call it that) I take much stock in. I believe in living life with utter and complete passion. I believe in making the best choices as well, so you don’t rush into anything without giving consequences and benefits the full thought they deserve. Perhaps that’s the real reason why people regret–because they half-assed the choice.
Live with passion and let it guide you to the best possible outcome. Regret is for suckers.
Some Thoughts:
- My cat got trapped in the toy closet for what must’ve been hours. Here’s the weird part: We closed the door before we left at 3, came home by 5:30, but she didn’t mewl about it till 8:30. What were you doing in there? Sleeping?
- Fantasy FB season is back on track with a win against the worst team in the league. I needed that win to end a 2 game skid that found me going from first place to 3rd. Now I gotta figure out a few things about the RB situation, because my main guy is terrible this season. Even so, my team is looking like a playoff squad but barely. The top teams are ringing in the points and I’m trying to hold on. We’ll see what kind of deals I can make to turn that around. After all, if you ain’t trading you ain’t trying.
- I’ve come to realize that when you let people vote for things they don’t much care about, you get votes that are more reflective of feelings than real stuff. We had a vote for the rookie of the year trophy for the 4-5 team and the vote went to the girl who touched the ball about twice in a 7 game season and spent her on-field minutes playing tag with another girl as opposed to any actual soccer (both touches being completely accidental). The new players who worked hard at the game were snubbed in the voting and it had nothing to do with their talent. Annoying. My oldest kid called it on week one, and I didn’t believe him. Kid intuition is almost as god as women’s intuition it seems.
