Day 3603: Letting go of regret

Letting go of regret is a very good habit to practice, since we can’t change the past.

Here and now, I’m letting go of regret about several things I coulda/shoulda/woulda done differently, including not beginning today’s New York Times Wordle puzzle with my usual starting word. Even though that word would have been a better choice than the one I picked today (out of boredom and wanting to try something new), I still solved the puzzle in four tries, which I regret only because I’m locked in a fierce Wordle battle with my husband, Michael.

I have no regret about marrying Michael and I have no regret about taking our cat Joan outside on a leash (even though Joan loudly seems to regret that I don’t take her out more often).

I am now letting go of regret about the images I did and did not collect for today’s post.

The Daily Bitch seems to be letting go of regret about dusting.

Here’s what I find on YouTube when I search for “letting go of regret.”

Thanks to Kathryn Schulz and to everyone else who helps me in letting go of regret, including YOU!

  1. you’ll never regret letting go of regret.

  2. I do appreciate that regrets prompt me to be a better person, to do better in the future, but making that effort also takes my mind off regrets which is better than dwelling on them.

  3. What a wonderful post! I love the photos of Joan. But I did not know that Elon Musk had put Tesla up as collateral for Twitter. That’s very alarming.

  4. My husband and I do Wordle everyday together. We got it in 3, but their choice of words is crazy sometimes. Have you tried Quordle? 4 times the fun!

  5. Please don’t let go of Joan’s leash, Ann.

  6. I regret not letting go of some regrets much sooner than I have. 🤷 but I’m learning all the time! I love Miss Joan’s outdoor strolls. She is one lucky kitty!
