But "What If's" are just state of emotions.
You wouldn't ask "What If" if you're happy at the moment. You will say "What happened is for the best".
You wouldn't ask "What If" if you're contented at the moment. You will say "Everything happens for a reason".
You wouldn't ask "What If" if you're flourishing at the moment.
You will say "It happened for the best intentions".
"What If's" are just state of emotions.
It will popped up in your head in your most vulnerable state.
At 3AM's when the world is silent and your heart is screaming.
When your mind start digging what you buried a long time ago thinking it was the best decision to make.
"What If's" are not regrets, but a state of emotions, eating your mind in your most vulnerable state.
When your heart is feeling despondent.
At 3AM's when everyone's asleep and you're wide awake with broken dreams.
When your heart starts digging for answers for questions not meant to be asked.
"What If's" are just state of emotions, poisoning your soul in your most vulnerable state.
When your soul is melancholic and desolate.
At 3AM's when everyone's at peace and your soul is trying to break free.
When you start digging for missing pieces you lost along the way.
But "What If's" will always remain just a question in your state of emotions, but without an answer.
