Moderation, in all things

I have been trying hard lately not to give in to regretting my relationship decisions.
In most cases they are really not all that regrettable.
When I was a kid I did and said some stupid things. Cruel things. Ignorant things.
When I was in college it got better and also catastrophically worse.
It's the splintering of the paths that keeps messing me up. What could have been, and what that means for what should have.

Regret is largely a waste of time, useless except as a 1. poison or 2. history lesson.
I'm trying to use it as the latter and not the former, since I find I cannot rid myself of it completely.
