“If I'm sincere today, what does it matter if I regret it tomorrow”
— Jose Saramago
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, being honest in the moment is really important, even if later on you might feel differently about what you said or did. Imagine you told a friend the truth about something because you cared about them. Maybe later you worry you were too harsh, but at that time, you felt it was the right thing to do. Being sincere and true to your feelings is valuable, even if you second-guess yourself afterward. It's better to be genuine than to hold back out of fear of future regret. This approach helps you build trust and be at peace with yourself, knowing you acted with honesty.
