Katie Holmes might have had quite the experience with the Church of Scientology while she was married to Tom Cruise, but the Hollywood star says she has no regrets about her past. In fact, Suri Cruise's mother says that she's learned from her experience and now prefers to live a life outside of the media spotlight, despite her very public profile as an actress.

According to Xpose on Monday, the former Dawson's Creek star says that she prefers to look to the future rather than dwell on the past. She also says she harbors no ill feelings about her marriage to mega-star Tom even though they are no longer on speaking terms.

She said, "I don't regret anything that I've done. I've learned from everything, and everything sort of leads you to the next place. I just keep going.''

And even with everything that she's gone through, Katie says that her number one goal right now is to live a very "normal" life for both her and her daughter, Suri.

She added, "I have a very normal life, and I happen to work in an industry that is abnormal. Daily life, I take a train and cab; it's just about getting from here to there, and I don't care how I do it. I have to get there.''

Katie also touched on the subject of motherhood and said being a parent has been the best experience of her life so far.

''[Motherhood] changes you completely in such amazing ways, and I think that you become who you were meant to be," she explained, adding, ''Being a parent also is a source of inspiration to just work really hard. You want to set an example - and, you know, [your kids] are what drives you.''
