MOST OF US CARRY REGRETS. There are many different kinds. Regrets of wasted opportunities and lost time. Regrets of things done and left undone. Regrets of decisions taken and those not taken. Regrets of words spoke and unspoken. Regrets like these rob us of our peace and serenity. Often they leave us with deep feelings of guilt or remorse or even despair. We wish we could turn the clock back. But we cannot. Perhaps you will know, as I do, some of these painful effects that come from living with regrets about our past. So what can we do? We can pray the Serenity Prayer. We can ask God to help us to accept the irreparable past. But we need to back up this prayer with a few things that we can do. Finding peace does not mean doing nothing. It may grow out of prayer, but it does not stop there. It brings new intentions, new obligations, new efforts.
