To all the feeling depressed/ in regret

Please try to understand that expectations of others or even yours dont hold any value , everyone whos opinion you might be worried about will die and so will you and would be forgotten in 2-3 generations, this exam is not the end of the world you will still have a decent quality of life and plenty of opportunities to work hard . To the ones who are feeling low because they wanted to make your parents proud and are labeling themselves as a failure , your parents will still love you even if you dont meet their expectations . They chose to have you , having you in their life give their life a new meaning . Yes they work hard for you and you should be grateful but that doesnt mean your in debt to them , also try to understand that if anyone else was in your position ( similar genes , similar experiences and everything) they would make the same mistakes as you did , everything we do is in response to our environment so dont feel inferior or superior to anyone else .There is no 'you' ,the sense of self is an illusion . However you should still be held accountable for your actions because that is also an experience and will change you for the better ( just like all the experiences before this did) . dont overthink and try to stay in the present , dwelling over the past is of no use and noone knows how future might turn out ,the present moment is all you have, you are just a machine designed for computation and manipulation that is literally what you are . please try to view your thoughts not as one with you , dont identify with them just view them as mere language appearing in consciousness . You do not control your thoughts they just come and go . Do what you can in these last 2-3 weeks and whatever happens happens
