      I always find myself at a crossroads with someone regretting their actions at the end of their lives/careers. should I feel happy knowing this person became self aware enough to realize their actions were wrong, or do I feel angry at the fact this person had enough reflection with their actions and did nothing to try and prevent it form happening again?

      in this case, I feel neutral. I had a Jerry springer phase growing up, and realized the people on this TV show are not good people. I viewed the show like a window into what I never want to aspire to be, so in a way, he helped me lol.
