There was a house that I used to live in years ago
There was a family then which I later had to forgo
I have no regrets about that event as it was to be
I am a much happier person today than with family
I still make journeys there to provide service
And stand outside the place of divinity's genesis
Marvelling at the fact that attachments have ceased
Which were I thought quite strong and never released
This periodic task that I do of routine kind
Has taught me important lessons quite sublime
A framework that makes up reality quite strong
Is truly illusory and cannot last that long
I used to define myself by my role in society
And worried about conforming to group's rigidity
But since my departure from that World by law
I have freed myself from all of communal flaws

What a beautiful thought, and I never used to think about regrets in my life, i almost do not have that word regret, in my life's dictionary. In my opinion that word will come into picture when u hault your life. As long as you are in motion I do not think anyone should question their decision. And being in a marriage I used to live the way you are living now, I was never bound by the rules that society foist upon. But now I am not sure where I am, whether i progressed forward or backward

Thank you for the insight
Thanks Hema: my earlier response got deleted. I am glad that you are living your life without constraints. There is no doubt that you are progressing - that is your birth right. It is evident in the way you treat your friends and family. May God bless you.
