Turn back the hands of time

There are a lot of things we regret doing or not doing in the past. We all wish we could turn back the hands of time and redo or undo the things we did. Somehow, we think we could have done it better or not done it at all. We wish we could make things right again. We wish we could undo the pain, anguish, hatred, anger and suffering we've caused other people and ourselves. If we made the right choices then we wouldn't be in this predicament right now. Because of it, we now have to live with the consequences of our actions.

But who are we to say that we made the wrong choices then? What if we were meant to go through it —– to learn, to be stronger, to be wiser, to grow? As they say, what is meant to be will always find a way. I know we shouldn't second guess ourselves. What's done is done. It's all in the past. But one way or another, we have to reflect and learn from it. For I firmly believe that if we haven't learned our lesson, we are bound to repeat the same mistakes again…and again…. and again.
