No Regrets

“Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.”





It was a Friday. One officemate confessed to me her feelings about Fridays. She said, “I’m really kindda sad that it’s a Friday, you know.  It’s because I know that after two days, it will be a Monday and that means going back to work.”  I looked at her and she smiled.  She knew what she said and she also found it funny.

The thing is, we have these misconceptions about certain days of the week.  Usually, Fridays are TGIFs (i.e. Thank God It’s Friday) while Mondays are “O, it’s Monday!”   But, if you think about it, our weekends are just two days and our week days are five.  Why can’t we be excited over the weekdays like we are for the weekends?  If we are truly to have “no regrets” with our lives, then we’ll make even our week days exciting. We won’t be crying over the end of our weekends. Instead we will be smiling because it happened and at the same time excited that our week days are about to happen.
