When we reflect on our lives and find areas of action or inaction that impacted ourselves, others or society in unfavorable ways, we encounter regret. This is a place to go within, ask questions to the self, be accountable to others, and learn that some of the past actions of our lives-when they are seen for what they are and addressed with honesty and courage-bring forth a more expansive, wholesome presence to hold ourselves and all beings with dignity and trust.
