I like the person I am becoming. I wouldn’t be the person I am becoming if I hadn’t made the choices I did in life.
That being said, I don’t think it’s really possible for me to say that I have no regrets.
I don’t regret the lessons I have learned, but their price is a bit high for me.
I have made mistakes.
I have burned bridges.
I have hurt others.
I cannot take it back, as much as I wish I could.
Sometimes no matter of apology or effort can rebuild a bridge.
I don’t know that the lessons are always worth it.
I am proud of the changes I have made in my life to be better – less petty – more understanding – less judgmental.
I only wish sometimes that the changes had not been necessary.
Changes make you the person you are, and I would not change the person you've become for the world. The crazy thing is I don't think we're ever done having regrets or making changes. But again, I liked you when I first met you and the changes have only made you better. Bring them on!
