sounds like scientology.

Thousands of things. I think all of them are very very minor.

Do you people realise scientology has the most absurd mythology ever?

Sounds like a piano teacher I had  ;D . Good thing he was right most of the time!

I regret a lot of stuff. There isn't a lot I can do about most of it, what's past and done is past and done. But I will do better from this point on, and by knowing and understanding my mistakes, not repeat them. :D

Instead, I will make new mistakes!!! ;D

Well, yes, I have.  Lots of things.  However, I do not regret the lessons I have learned as a result of my decisions in life, but just the opposite really.   I think regret serves a specific purpose in helping us learn and make better choices in the future.   Regret causes change.  But once the change has been made, regret is no longer serving a purpose and has no place in a changed heart.  If the lesson cannot be lived out without being tainted by regret for what has been done, it seems to me that the change is not complete. 

But life can be complicated.

I agree with m1469. 

There are things I regret of course.  I think everyone would have them.  But it's part of life. 

I think the things I regret most are the things I did knowing I would regret them later on.

But you learn and move on. 

If you regret something and then do it again, that's just stupidity.

If you didn't know at the time, then there's not much sense in regret.

I think there are positives and negatives to every choice you make really.
