Of Fear and Regret

When you know in your mind that it is most definitely the right thing to do,
Do it scared.
You are allowed to be hell scared.
You are allowed to have zero confidence.
You are allowed to be your worst possible self.
You are allowed to beat yourself up time and again for not knowing better.
But, you are neither allowed to give in, nor to give up.
In a year’s time, you will get to recollect every fear you will have overcome with gusto and contentment.
But, if regret is all you have to live with, you will have throttled yourself to death while you still have breath.
Be the First or the Nth to stand up for the right cause.
That hardly matters.
But, be on the right side of the situation at hand.
And, as they say, “if you do not stand for anything, you will fall for everything”.
Better scarred with fears won over, than blemished with regrets buried forever.
Fear’s Temporary, Regret’s Forever.
