Don't Live With Regret

In a tangled up net

Of things you didn't do

You had to be you

Don't feel bad, of choices you took

You traveled the pages, to make your own book

You had to experience, you had to explore

The journey of life, so you could become more

When you chisel a sculpture, it turns out alright

A lifetime traveler, is embraced by the light

The finished product, looks pretty good

Sometimes we ponder on the “If We Could”

The role that you played

Was how you were made

Chiseled, with every moment passing by

Turning out, as beauty to the eye

You are who you are, be proud to be you

The trials of time, is what you went through

You've learned about life, love, and much more

Became much wiser, with the burdens you bore

Never look back, to what could have been

You've mastered you, and that was then

You can look back on your past and think of

things you could have done and didn't, or

things you did do, but shouldn't have. But

take a good look at yourself and who you've

become. Without those trials and experiences

you wouldn't be the YOU, that you are today.

From exploring life, you have had experiences.

From your experiences, you have learned so

much. You need not regret, be proud of YOU.
