My biggest regret in life

My biggest regret in life does follow the same "not" pattern. Basically, one of the biggest regrets that I have in my  life, is not having the chance to really know one of my classmates in high school. This classmate and I did not get the chance to know one another because, I was someone who did not really talk with all the students who were in my class. I would have had the chance to talk to this classmate, but then something very sad happened to this classmate. They were killed in a car accident.  I was vey upset to hear that this had occurred, especially since they were someone who was a student in my high school class.

I regret this situation because, I never got the chance to introduce myself to this person and never had the chance to have conversations or attend school events with this classmate. I really wish that I had been more open to talking with this person and not just the students who I had close friendships with. I could not "turn around this regret.  I really wish I could but I cannot. 

Having regrets relates to the course theme of lies and deception because, the regrets that people may have in their lives could possibly be  a lie, since people promise that they will be able to make up for their regrets later in life, but that  may not happen if they become too busy with other events in their lives.
