Regret can be seen as an unfinished or unaccomplished event, originating from Gestalt psychology. The principle of Gestalt psychology maintains that human beings tend to pursue or see things in their entirety; however, an unfinished event destroys this entirety. We all have many regretful experiences such as things that we didn’t manage to do, incapable of doing, or fail to do throughout our whole life. Though we don’t like these regrets, they could be treasured as the rewards of our own life. Nevertheless, regrets can leave sweet memories or bitter torments, which will lead to a deeper understanding of life.
