Regrets can weigh heavily on a person's life from "summary" of The Midnight Library by Matt Haig
Regrets, as it turns out, are weighty things. They can anchor us to the past, dragging us down with their heavy burden. In the Midnight Library, Nora Seed learns this lesson all too well. She finds herself in a place between life and death, where she is given the chance to undo all her regrets. Throughout her journey, Nora discovers that regrets aren't just fleeting moments or passing thoughts. They have a way of seeping into every aspect of our lives, shaping our decisions and coloring our perceptions. Each regret she explores weighs on her like a stone, pulling her deeper into despair. The weight of regrets can be suffocating, clouding our judgment and hindering our ability to move forward. Nora realizes that living in a constant state of regret can be paralyzing, trapping us in a cycle of what-ifs and should-haves. It is only when she confronts her regrets head-on that she begins to feel the weight lifting, allowing her to breathe freely for the first time in a long while. Regrets have a way of distorting reality, creating a false narrative that we come to believe as truth. Nora sees how her regrets have colored her perception of herself and her life, leading her to make choices that were not true to who she really was. By shedding the weight of regret, she is able to see herself clearly for the first time in years. In the end, Nora comes to understand that regrets are a natural part of life, but they do not have to define us. They can be powerful teachers, guiding us towards a more authentic and fulfilling existence. It is only when we learn to let go of our regrets that we can truly embrace the present and create the future we desire.
