When I&#8217;m struggling with dillemmas or regret, another good friend of mine reminds me, &#8220;You only do what you really want to do.&#8221;  If you were caught in a dillemma, and you made a choice, it was based on what was more important to you.  There&#8217;s no sense in worrying or regretting.  Even if it seems selfish or crazy or thoughtless at the time &#8212; you had a reason.  And if you realize after the fact that your priorities were off, well, you just corrected them.  And if you suffer horrible consequences for your actions, well, you&#8217;re learning (and it&#8217;s how you learn best).  And you&#8217;ll make a different choice in the future.  But you can&#8217;t change the past, or what your priorities were at the time.  That&#8217;s just the way it went.  Regret is a waste of energy.  Move forward, grow, and remember you&#8217;re whole and perfect.  <b>I declare myself to be infallable. If i make a mistake, it was the correct mistake at the time.<\/b><i>(Okay, now argue with me.
