Past Regrets

What is it other people,
Really think about what you've done?
Even if you ask them, no matter what they say,
There's room for suspicion.

And you can't escape wanting to paint everything,
With the same brush that you always do,
So if you think something you've done is embarassing,
You think that they think that about you, too.

So, without changing who you are, what is more stressful,
To assume the worst, or give the benefit of the doubt?
I say the latter, because trying to connect with others,
Is what life is all about.

And it's alright,
To still cringe when you think of something from the past,
Just as long as you can still smile afterwards,
When you think in what light by others it's also cast.
