Yes, we are somehow supposed to forgive ourselves, right?
Maybe after confession?

Worth noting is that ToO does not believe Jesus Christ was/is God in the flesh, died for the sins of the world to reconcile mankind to God and was Resurrected.
ToO refuses to even say if he believes in God.
His attempt to speak for God is laughable.

On an affects-others level, there is one incident that still makes me feel bad when I recall it. It happened when I was living in a kind of frontier town on the ...[text shortened]... appointment I caused - not so much to the graduating pupils - but to the organizer of the event.

Originally posted by @chaney3I regret not going to university when I was 18.
But your OP asks for someone's biggest regret.
What am I missing?
Originally posted by @karoly-aczelCringeworthy but you would do them again?
I regret nothing, however some of my earlier life choices are cringworthy

I completely forgot about it and spent those two or three hours playing cards with my neighbours on my back patio.
It was deeply embarrassing to see, later, photographs of the graduation showing the massive banner across the stage that welcomed me - by name - as the guest of honour. Small thing perhaps, but I still think about the disappointment I caused - not so much to the graduating pupils - but to the organizer of the event.

Dont we need mistakes to learn ?
Originally posted by @divegeesterBack about 10 years ago, I was nominated to receive a “Humanitarian of the Year” award and was supposed to go to a massive ballroom in New York City for the presentation. The ballroom was packed with celebrities, media, politicians, leaders in business, etc. and, being a deeply modest person, I felt it would be a better use of my time to spend the evening delivering meals to the home-bound elderly.

Is it “Christian” to hold onto regret?
How does one avoid regret?
Originally posted by @divegeesterNo. I would regret that.
Cringeworthy but you would do them again?
Without giving anything away, would you do those things again?
Originally posted by @thinkofoneVery true .. no need to make every mistake in the book.
