"learning from regret" |
"make the most of your regrets; never smother your sorrow, but tend and cherish it till it comes to have a separate and integral interest. to regret deeply is to live afresh."
quoted from the book in a pit with a lion on a snowy day:
"if you're anything like me, your jigsaw puzzle has some missing pieces. you have some inaction (i am adding-you also have action) regrets. so what do you do with them? you can wallow in self-pity. you can beat yourself up. you can drown in a pool of regret. or you can channel those regrets into a more courageous approach to life. you can resolve to chase the lion you ran away from last time."
put simply - redeem your regrets and use that knowledge to live a more productive, creative and inspired life.

So thankful God can redeem our messes, our regrets, our failures . . . everything!
