It's not regrets, it's lessons learned

What is life?
but a journey,
a collection of
experiences,
a jar full of memories,
a crazy rollercoaster ride
of highs & lows,
why do we intend on making
living in this world harder?
by holding on to the things
we should be letting go,
reminding ourselves it's 
not regrets, it's lessons 
learned,
it's time shared,
it's laughing,
it's crying,
it's something you
can't fully understand,
or prepare for,
we just have to take a step at a time,
pushing forward,
no matter how slow,
it won't ever be perfect,
but that's okay,
we will give it our best shot,
we will hold our heads high,
you might not think you have it all,
but my darling,
you are rich in love,
more than words can say,
I hope that you keep that throughout
all of your adventures & it
stays in your heart always.
