lost, regret and cherish..
watched a hong kong drama serial a few nights ago. 2 brothers were chatting coz the younger brother had a quarrel with his girlfriend and they were at the 'cooling down' period. the elder brother told his younger brother, "i know 3 buddies.. they are closely related but they never appear together before. these 3 buddies are known as lost, regret and cherish/treasure."
i feel that what he said is true. people often experienced these 3 feelings after something has happened. we only start to feel regretful after we have lost something, especially someone u love. it's only after we regret what has happened that we start to learn to cherish and treasure things. how many of us have lost someone we truly love, regret that we didn't cherish the person when he/she is around and that we didn't do more to show our love for him/her??
i learnt these 3 feelings the hard way.. when i was 8.. when my mum passed away.. i love her (present tense coz i still do) and i regret i wasn't able to show her more, give her more, to spend more time with her. after she was gone, i knew i had to cherish and treasure every moment, everything, and everybody close to me. i don't want to wait til i no longer have the chance to do it. which is why my personality is the way it is. i prefer to be optimistic, to look on the bright side of life, to be happy every moment of my time.
i like the way i am. i treasure every moment of my life and i live every day to the fullest. i try to live my life with no regrets. which is why when i look back at the past 15 years (after what happened when i was 8), i can proudly say that i've never regretted any decisions that i've made (unless the decision wasn't made by me). i might feel a little sad at some things that might have happened before or some breakups that i initiated, but i don't regret coz i know that things happen for a reason.
people might not agree with my thinking or look at me differently, but i choose not to bother. i've learnt to let go and to live my life the way i like, the way i'm happy with, and the way that i choose. i no longer want to let other people's opinion affect me and get me down the way it used to. my life is mine. i don't other people to ruin it for me. as long as i'm happy, that's good enough.
i just want to say, don't ever regret any decisions u've made in life coz we should live a life with no regrets. however, we have to cherish and treasure everything and every moment when we can. do not wait til u've lost and regretted something before u learn to cherish and treasure the people around u. show more care and concern for the people around u and live each day to the fullest. that's the way life should be.. to be happy. :)
so smile, coz u never know who is falling in love with ur smile.
