Quote of the Day: Better to regret

I have a new quote to post:

"Rather than to regret after listening to another's advice, it is better to regret your own mistakes" - bronx 09.20.04

Basically the quote suggests that you should have to listen to anyone if you don't agree with them. You should always make the last decision. If there is a negative outcome you're the only one to blaim.. and it's more enduring to regret your own decisions than to point fingers at others who gave you bad advice.

i.e. Your mother tells you to marry a rich girl who she thinks is the right person for you. Yet your in love with a poor girl who you believe you can live happily ever after.

The fact is that you won't be happy with either one in 5 years. You trust your mom, and marry the girl you don't love. She ends up cheating on your and u get a divorce. Now who's fault is it? You will be blaming your mom cuz you were forced into a marriage that you didn't want and will never know what kind of life you could have had with the poor girl.

But if u marry the poor girl and end up in divorce, you could always learn from your own mistake and be content with the choice you made w/o blaming someone else.

Other's should respect your decisions.
