| Little wonders and regrets |
I know that especially as women we pay attention to the wonders and the hours. I know so many times I have sat there in a moment wanting to desperately etch it into my mind so that I will never forget what is happening and how I feel at the time. Sometimes they are beautiful memories, romantic or even sad. But for one reason or another I feel like I need to remember it.
Maybe I need to remember so I learn from it....cherish a memory that I can bring up in my mind from time to time....whatever the reason it happens. Life is short and without those moments life isn't worth remembering.We have so much in our minds when we are adults...especially some of us that have been around for 40+ years. So many people...events....moments and without all of them together each one isn't anything without the others. You can't forget pain because without it you don't feel the joy. Without the lost you don't rememeber how good it was.
Do I regret? Sometimes I wonder if it is better not to have experienced something so I could change the outcome.
I have a friend that has somewhat of a "motto" for lack of words that is "I regret nothing"
It would be nice to have that but I don't think I can be like that because I tend to hold things close. People from the past have usually made an impression or taught me something for the future. Everyone I have ever loved in the distant past....the recent past and all of those in the future will always have a piece of my heart. If I loved you then I will always love you. True love never fades...life just has a way of changing.
Sometimes it changes when you least expect it and more often than not it is usually at the time you are not ready for it. I am sure that we all have something happen or someone came into our lives and it was so hard we never thought we could handle it and wanted it to be gone and maybe some welcome the experience and learned from it.I have had both. A whole lot of experience and have had things happen and have regretted them...some not to the point where I wish they didn't happen at all because they changed time to what happened afterwards so without that the others things wouldn't be.
What I am trying to say is that I do understand regrets but I try my best not to have them. In the end we can not undo the past only learn from them.
These are a couple of lines from a song I love the song is on my podcast to hear
www.thoughts.com/blog/podcasts/littlewonders-428/
Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders,
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away,
But these small hours,
These small hours still remain
All of my regret
Will wash away some how
But i can not forget
The way i feel right now
