Life is full of what ifs, innit?

As titled. Day in, day out, we always wonder "what if?" What if I took a certain action earlier would the results would be different? Or what if I had been more careful with my words, would I have avoided trouble? Like we always say, "hindsight is 20/20"; it pains me to say that I don't have hindsight and in fact I dare say nobody does.

Experience, alertness, awareness, and many other factors can help avoid situations that are less than ideal but it's safe to say that there is no one that can accurately predict an outcome to every action. What do I want to say? Shouldn't you know better than to ask by now? I never know what I really wanna say, this blog is entirely the ramblings of a confused mind.

But every cause has an effect right? So what's the cause for the effect known as this post? To put it simply, regrets. One can only lament on what ifs due to fact that one regrets the result of an action. Am I going to talk about it? Perhaps not. You all would do well to know that with Google around, none of your stuff are private anymore.

I wish I could tell the person this particular regret concerns but then if I could, I wouldn't be lamenting here would I? That very night I should have acted, but I didn't and that's all to it on this particular story.
