Regrets and their cousins, resentments,
are a huge cause of self-inflicted suffering.

to put the past in the past where it belongs.
However, sometimes a simple symbolic act can help immeasurably
to grant ourselves freedom from the past.

Pitiful is the person who is afraid of taking risks.

be disappointed or disillusioned;

God bestowed on you?"
