Some wisdom to live by...

So about 2 years ago I got a pdf copy of every Star Wars book ever written. There are well over 200 of them, and because they were all written BEFORE Disney nerfed it, I count those as the TRUE star wars universe. Not this charade that Disney has made. I'm currently in the time period of right after the the sith takes control (Turns out the Sith were originally a race of dark side using aliens who enslaved humans for various reasons). It a series called "last of the jedi". In the first book was a quote from Qui gon gin to Obi-Wan that I think rings true for everyone out there. [quote]To be a living being is to live with regret. Those who say they regret nothing are liars or fools. Accept your regret the way you accept your mistakes. Then move on[/quote] This short sentence spoke the most to me out of every book I've read. It did so because for a long while I used to tell people I had no regrets. or even worse I'd TELL people to live without regret. Upon reading this though I realized just how much I've grown from that flawed logic. I realized how much of a young idiot I was compared to who I am now. Moral of the story? Regret is an important part of life. It helps us to learn and evolve as an individual. Don't be a fool like I was. Accept the things you've done wrong and learn from them. Don't ignore them or pretend they don't exist. That is a path towards the Dark Side. To read this and ignore it is to be a fool. Real wisdom comes from those with the experience, and those with experience don't want to see other people make the same mistakes. Learn from those who fail. Respect your elders wisdom, and cherish every memory, good or bad.
