The mistakes I've made. I've been haughty. I've been unkind. I've made plenty of mistakes, many of which I've been forgiven for. But that doesn't make them right or make me feel less guilty about making them. - Jason Huebel
For me, it's B. We all learn from our mistakes. That's a cliche for a reason, but in my life, I've played it far too safe for far too long, and at the end of the day, it's been disappointing. I'm embracing and looking forward to being more cavalier about taking more chances in life. - Derrick
I'm not big on the whole regret thing, but if I had to choose, I'd go with B. There are a few things I wish I would have done but didn't and that time is past. - James Ferguson
B The chances I haven't taken, too many to sum up.. Everyone makes mistakes, and there is much you can do about it.. I guess I need take more risks... - Sebastiaan van den Akker

"daddy?" - "yes son" - "what does regret mean?" - "well son a funny thing about regret is, that its better to regret something you have done than to regret something you haven't done, and by the way, if you see your mom this weekend would you be sure and tell her..." ;) - mike "glemak" dunn
B. I was too careful most of my life. Taking chances has opened my life to new horizons. - Carmen
Neither. We are linear beings. Regret is merely a sticky substance that we should avoid. - Tutivillus Grift
I never regret mistakes. Of course, i've yet to make one that was devastating. We all do the best we can given our current circumstances. You can never expect more from yourself than you can give at any instance. Looking back and wishing it was different won't change the past. Mistakes are a learning experience. - ·[▪_▪]·
well both of them are regretful , I think I may regret not taking my chances because mistakes should be in life ... and it is always with us ... when we do a mistake we learn something new and we get a new experience but when we don't take a chance , it may not come to us anymore - vivavida

B. I had one or two chances that I didn't take. :-( - Kol Tregaskes
Deleted my previous comment cause I was half asleep when I wrote it. I think you should strive to not regret these kinds of things. Mistakes are the only way you learn, I guess regret would be if you keep repeating the *same* mistake. So if I had to choose it would be B. - mikepk

Neither . . . I believe everything happens for a reason and I rarely don't take a chance. But if I absolutely have to pick one then I'll go with B ;) - Lindsey in Love

I'm gonna say "A"...largely because I have a gun to my head with a demand that I do so, "or else". I'm pretty happy with the chances I've taken, and am not greedy. I have hurt people's feelings, and have behaved in less than exemplary ways, which I now, at times, regret. - david beckwith

I've learned more from my actions. The challenge is to stay on course. - Russellreno
B - Morgan Haley
Regret is something that should not be. Everything happens for a reason, even bad choices. Instead of dwelling on regret and the things that could have happened, learn from the disappointments and grow into a better person. - Haggis (Sean)
