Different chapters in our lives begin and end continuously until our days are done on this earth, so why do many of us refuse to realize that there can be new beginnings? Some of us grow so attached to the way that things are operating at the moment that we sometimes lose sight on who we are as a person, and also forget about the goals and dreams that we once wished to accomplish.

Knowing that there are questions left unanswered in parts of our lives, and lingering regret will be with us always no matter how much we choose to deny it, the choice is yours to either build from it, or to let it destroy you. We must recognize that the past we have, including the mistakes that we made, and the regrets that still may be in our minds to this day, are what builds our character. As Sydney Smith said "Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things we did not do that is inconsolable."
