Is there something in your life that you regret? That you cry or even laugh about?

I am always in debt to Gibran:
Joy & Sorrow
Then a woman said, "Speak to us of Joy and Sorrow."
And he answered:
Your joy is your sorrow unmasked.
And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises was oftentimes filled with your tears.
And how else can it be?
The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.
Is not the cup that hold your wine the very cup that was burned in the potter's oven?
And is not the lute that soothes your spirit, the very wood that was hollowed with knives?
When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy.
When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.
Some of you say, "Joy is greater than sorrow," and others say, "Nay, sorrow is the greater."
But I say unto you, they are inseparable.
Together they come, and when one sits alone with you at your board, remember that the other is asleep upon your bed.
Verily you are suspended like scales between your sorrow and your joy.
Only when you are empty are you at standstill and balanced.
When the treasure-keeper lifts you to weigh his gold and his silver, needs must your joy or your sorrow rise or fall.

I have a few regrets. I do not dwell on the past because it is over and done. Hopefully, I have learned from my bad decisions and will not make the same mistake twice.

No.. I can honestly say I am the happiest I have ever been. The past is just that & I definitely have no regrets.

I don't believe in regret.
I like to be able to say that I always made the best decision based on the evidence presented to me at the time.
If it didn't work out then it didn't work out. But looking back I can see that with the same evidence I would make the same decisions again.
