Perhaps like Sarah said, regrets are things we should not carry with us, but regardless of what I have learned from my mistakes, there is a part of me that wishes I didn't make them in the first place. When I look back on blunders I have made in the past, nothing in particular stands out. I think my biggest regrets lie in the seemingly insignificant moments when I have said something I don't mean. I can not remember a time when I have purposely hurt another person, however I know that in a rage of frustration or a moment of ignorance, I have said words that were both unnecessary and wrong. I have learned that no matter how small and meaningless a rude comment may appear to be, words hurt more than anything else, and I hate to think that there have been occassions when I have contributed to inflicting that kind of pain. It is true that i have learned from these occassions, but that does not justify them in any sense.
