Losses are part of our life and a part of being alive.They are natural, inevitable, but when we embrace a life without regrets, these losses are overshadowed by the lessons they teach and the perspective they bring

-Let go of the past
-Eliminate the negative WHAT IFS
-Embrace the present
-Dare to do what you never thought you do
-Instead of ask what if, ask WHAT NOW
