Reflections On Regrets {from the rambling series} Lazy gray rainy day surrounds my thoughts as I sit in quiet contemplation of what once was and that which life has become. Regrets. I choose not to harbor regrets, for each one that I would hold has somewhow affected me with positive effect. Reflect. Yes, I reflect on those things which have caused past pains but I push them aside so that rather I can celebrate what has become due to that which once upon a time was. Destinies Uknown. Yet, I face them now being able to stand steadfast in knowing that I am stronger now because I was weaker then. I know that you can 'read' me but can you 'hear' "me"?

This is perfect. Very wise and I couldn't agree more. I like the way you've written these ideas, so poetically, you have done it well. Enjoyed. Thank you for this. Warm regards, Pat  ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. "Desiderata" [This message has been edited by regards2you (11-22-2002 11:02 AM).] |

"i am stronger now because i was weaker then" now that is a succinct way of putting it..it certainly makes things very clear  |

Much wisdom here GS..(and wonderfully spoken I might add). Haven't quite reached that level of "growth" yet, but I try hard. There's something about grease on the road that makes it a real "backsliding" trip though...ha! Enjoyed this much. .. jwesley |

Donna~ Your words echo so much of what we all dwell on from time to time. Enjoyed very much. Regrets harbor pain and doubts Reflections give life to what was and what can be...Paul |

Beautiful sentiment, I've yet to come to terms with my regrets but hope to do so one day with the grace and courage found within your words. |
