Regrets

My last post reminded me of a quote by Soren Kierkegaard, a Danish philosopher...

"If you marry you will regret it. If you do not marry you will regret it. If you marry or do not marry, you will regret it."

Hmmm...that's not very reassuring. But from many conversations I've had, I think its true.

What Kierkegaard means by that, is that if you've ever made an important choice, and chose one option, you'll wonder whether the other option was the better one. And, also, vice-versa.

If you've ever doubted or wondered; that's your regret.

So true. But it just so happens, literally, marriage vs. single is a topic that has come up pretty regularly over the past few weeks. So this quote jogged my memory.

But certainly this line wasn't meant to be so literal. Just worked out that way. Thanks for reading!

Marriage? A regular topic recently? Is a congratulations in order?

Who is the lucky guy?

Oh, not hardly. Quite the opposite. But thank you.
