The Wine Trivia

Today I feel It’s been a while that I have spoken to you guys, I don’t know why but yes, I have a feeling of a renewed relationship. Let’s start with a question…. Do you have any regrets in your life? Or what do you regret about your life?

- Rachit Sharma

 

I generally come across this question. Usually people talk philosophical only when they are drunk beyond their limits and this time was no different. After a bottle of Glen (a brother from a Scottish mother) you are rendered to such thoughts even if one doesn’t wants to. Somehow the past becomes more important to you than your present or the future. Yes, my friend asked this to me and it began an astounding thought process (everything is astounding when you are drunk) which is still going on. Let’s begin with what are regrets.

Regrets

Feel sad, repentant, or disappointed over (something that one has done or failed to do). This is the goggled meaning of the word but does it makes you understand what it means to you? No.

Regrets in simpler terms are disappointments over ones actions generally used in first person scenario (our own). Any of our carelessly committed actions which did not give us the satisfaction they were intended to give are known as regrets as we are never happy or completely satisfied with anything in our life. Economics taught us that “Human wants are unlimited and the means to satisfy them are scarce”. I would also say that to completely understand the human behavior “Human expectations are also unlimited and the means to satisfy them are scarce” and if we or someone else cannot satisfy our own expectations it will result in regret.

Now, having regret in singular or plural form is very person specific. Let me talk about myself by saying that “I have no regrets in my life” I know you might have a sneer on your face thinking that I am just saying just for the heck of it but let me explain.
