No Regrets

There are a million things in the world to complain about
but aren't there also a million things to be thankful for,
so why waste time and energy crying and screaming
when it feels so much better to laugh and smile,
because the fact about life is that it gets the better of us,
you will die and everyone you've ever loved will die as well,
so learn to live to spite life by fearing nothing
and by allowing no room for regrets,
say all the things you need to say,
walk on the edge rather than playing it safe,
love your lovers with your whole heart,
and be the person you want to be,
because you may only get one chance to really live
and a well-lived life has no unhappy endings .
