Well, today was a little better than yesterday as far as my mood is concerned. The first part of my day started out a little rough; I was definitely in the mood to self-depricate. Anyway, I snapped out of later when I realized that no one is perfect, and everyone makes mistakes. That's part of who we are as human beings, and it helps us learn who we really are. Besides, how boring would it be if I was perfect? Then nobody would like me, lol!
Anyway, one thing I need to work on is learning to accept myself for who I am. I know that's the pinnacle of every twenty-something's life, but for me it is extra hard because I haven't had the "normal" twenty-something experience. But I have accept that that's the way my life turned out, and no matter how much I wish I could go back and change things, I CAN'T. As my boyfriend's mother says "Stop looking in the rear-view mirror."
One thing that bothers me is people who say they have no regrets in life. That is the biggest load of BS I've ever heard. How can you have NO regrets in life? That's impossible. Everyone has something that they regret or wish they had done differently. People who disagree simply haven't lived enough to say otherwise. Usually it's people who are young and naive.
I've got to learn to lighten up a little, and not overanalyze things so much. The happiest people are those who can take bad experiences and pass at off as lesson learned, instead of dwelling on things they can't change.
