Regrets

I spent the better half of my day searching for something that gets my adrenaline pumping. I wanted to do the spicy Korean noodle challenge (the limited edition version that is twice as hot) and when I was finally able to set up a filming time with some friends, to my disappointment it was sold out.

I couldn't begin the explain the regret I felt. Just a week prior, I'd stumbled onto mutiple packets of it.

But, to my dismay, there were none left when I'd returned. I kept telling myself, 'You don't have to buy it now. You can come back for it later.' Little did I realize that the opportunity for later would be taken from me.

It's not a total loss; I'm sure I can still buy it on Amazon. But, the regret I felt from not being able to film that day was so consuming. The feeling of something just within' your reach had you taken the chance to seize the opportunity doesn't inspire calamity but rather, just an unpleasantry that you cannot settle in your heart. The shoulda, coulda, woulda of life really racks your brain. I hope for the rest of my days to prevent any more chances of feeling this way: the feeling of not knowing what could have been if I had just tried. Good night, all.
