looking at where I am and what I've done,
I can justify what I have become.
if I could go back, I would not change,
a single choice I have ever made.
Yes, I have regrets.
and, yes, I've made mistakes,
but I understand,
what I've learned from those days.
my life's a journey, and it's far from done.
I've made it this far, and I'll never stop.
the lessons I'll learn, and people I'll meet,
shall always be cherished as part of me.
mistakes to embrace,
and regrets to face.
life's the oldest and wisest,
of any studied prophets.
if you view life's messages,
through many different lenses,
you will find a plethora of lessons,
to be learned from all your decisions.
when you make mistakes,
that you want to change,
try not to regret or mourn.
learn the lesson - be reborn.

Nice poem with a good message. Looking back with regrets doesn't solve anything, it makes it worse. 'learn the lesson - be reborn' - great ending. Thank you for entering the contest ‘Metaphysical Poems #3’.

absolutely
this is a journey and experiencing is what we are called to do, when the experience is over, a new one arrives if our minds are trapped in the past we miss the experience, although it does return, we need to stay present.
accept and embrace and you learn
very profound
a pleasure to read
God bless you my friend...
