This quote is honestly my favorite. I love it because I watch my friends holding themselves back constantly; especially recently. They keep giving up on themselves and others; and it hurts to watch. I find that the worst type of regret to watch is the regret caused by a broken friendship. When a friendship breaks and a person is too afraid to try fixing things; or DOES fix things but then has no idea how to continue being the same friend. I hate watching these situations because the solution is so simple.
Recently; one of my friends has been getting more regretful and depressed than usual due to past mistakes made with old friends. He has apologized for his mistakes; but like I mentioned above... doesn't know how to continue the friendship. He refuses to talk normally to either of the people and says that everything is always awkward. Now; while I say that I make things "awkward" a lot; it's more in a joking sense than anything else. Honestly; awkward is a state of mind that is different for every person. Much like love, hate, and any other emotional experience- it varies from person to person. So your definition of awkward may not even BE awkward to someone else. How we experience life and what we choose to do with the options given to us is what makes us unique. We can't see eye to eye on every single matter. It's impossible. And the worst thing you could possibly do to yourself is start thinking in a negative way when you're trying to make progress with someone else. Cross the line. It's worth the risk, trust me. - Maddie
