“Surrender” to the Almighty is the first word that came to my mind my blessed Col. @Monesh_Bathre
That’s such a thoughtful question, and having been with you for so many blessed years now, I feel that I might know the context as well. I’ve felt this and this is how I’ve resolved this for myself.
“I think I should’ve taken the other route!” after returning back from any trips or errands within the traffic infested and potholes of Bengaluru… this is what I say in repentance to my family who I feel might have suffered my bad decision to have taken a route. Neha saw this for several times and one day she said something that struck deep into my heart and I never felt this way again! Before we go to what she said, I’d also like to highlight the level of impatience I’d feel at the toll gates, where the one I pick after swerving around like a chicken here and there, I finally choose the best one. But that would be the one which turns out have some unexpected delay…
and I’d see all the cars and trucks I had so painstakingly overtaken zoom past me through the adjacent gates! 
I hope you get the point about the distress I’d go through while comparing myself with others.
So what Neha said was “It would have made no difference!” to my repentance that I should have taken the other route! And there are times when I’d have taken the “other” route and found that to be so true! So the moral of the story is, all roads are equally bad! 
isn’t this like the dilemma of Schrodinger’s Cat
In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger’s cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition. In the thought experiment, a hypothetical cat in a closed box may be considered to be simultaneously both alive and dead while it is unobserved, as a result of its fate being linked to a random subatomic event that may or may not occur.
That being one thing, let me present you with an exhilarating anecdote from Sri Ramakrishna
“There was a man who was practising Sava Sadhana (Tantrik practice using Sava or corpse as seat for meditation). He was worshipping the Divine Mother in a deep forest. He had struggled hard and with great difficulty procured the items necessary for the worship. Soon after he sat for meditation, he saw several terrible visions and finally a tiger attacked and killed him. Another man passing by happened to see the tiger and had climbed a tree to protect himself. After the tiger went away, he got down from the tree and seeing the arrangements for worship at hand seated himself on the corpse and began the worship. In no time he had the vision of the Divine Mother who being pleased with his worship wanted to grant him a boon. The man bowed with deep devotion and told the Divine Mother, “Mother! I am speechless and amazed by your action. The other person had worked very hard and gathered the ingredients for your worship, but you did not bless him with your vision. But, I who am not really familiar with this worship, with very little effort have received so much of your grace.” The Divine Mother said with a smile, “You do not remember your past births during which you had tried to propitiate me through intense austerities. It is because of those austerities that you have been blessed with my vision. Now ask for a boon.””

that I hope suffices to answer
but since we know that “Karma is never an act of retribution” it is only for us to learn… so I’ll let you pick up the answer for
which is in between these two Shlokas
- दु:खालयमशाश्वतम् – from मामुपेत्य पुनर्जन्म दु:खालयमशाश्वतम् |
नाप्नुवन्ति महात्मान: संसिद्धिं परमां गता: || SBG 8.15||
the very nature of this world is Dukha… exactly resonates with what Bhagvan Buddha also said, so for those who are anticipating something, the joy is only in anticipation because on getting it, the next struggle beings, which is on retaining it!
सर्वधर्मान्परित्यज्य मामेकं शरणं व्रज।
अहं त्वा सर्वपापेभ्यो मोक्षयिष्यामि मा शुचः॥
(Srimad Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 18, Verse 66)
abandon all your self imposed obligations which you confuse to be your Dharma and Surrender…
