They say "It's not a mistake unless you regret it".
If you regret your life, does that make it a mistake?
"No, of course!" They'll say. That's what they'll always say.
So, if I regret something, that doesn't always make it a mistake?
What if something can be a mistake, even without regret?
Wouldn't that mean everything's a mistake?
There is no law nor rule on deciding what is a mistake or not.
Do humans have the power to say what is and what's not?
If so, who decides?
Who are we allowing to decide our fate, telling us whether our action were wrong or right?
Why does someone get the privilege to tell me what's a mistake and what's not?
In a world like that, there would be no democracy and there would be more wars. Would that in itself be a mistake?
No one knows.
That's why we don't allow anyone with that sort of power.
That's why they tell us not to let people decide what we can and can't do.
So in that respect, you can not tell me that my life is not a mistake.
You can not tell me I am wrong.
No one has the right to tell me what I can and can't do.
No one has the right to tell me what to regret and what not to regret.
No one has the right to tell me if I am wrong or right.
No one has the right to tell me to live or die.
