Licking the Razor's Edge (2015)

In conclusion, then, dealing with regret is a relatively uncomplicated affair … Once we
understand the raw ineffectiveness of pining for a different past, our regrets become our
only regret … Once we let go of the life we wish we had led, we can commence living
the life we actually have to lead.
“The only calibration that counts is how much heart people invest; how much they ignore
their fears of being hurt or called out or humiliated. And in the end, the only thing people
ultimately regret is that they didn’t live boldly enough, that they didn’t invest enough
heart, didn’t Love enough. Nothing else really counts at all.” ~ inspired by Ted Hughes
“In terms of days and moments lived, you’ll never again be as young as you are right
now, so spend this day, the youth of your future, in a way that deflects regret. Have some
real fun by doing something truly important … Love somebody extra.”
~ inspired by Victoria Moran
