move on down the highway

git along little doggy

sing a song
into hurricane winds
shake your fist
at a sob

you have reasons to believe
your races have been run
regrets . . .
but of course

And live to the fullest whatever life is left.

Regrets can make us better people... but if our eyes stay glued to the rearview mirror, it doesn't change where we've been... but might keep us from getting to where we should be.

We still have races to run... even if the pace is slower.

Wishing you success in every step.

Thanks, suthern, and I hear what you are saying. My thoughts are basically straight ahead even though the vision is shorter than looking back. I don't play to the past, but I don't run from it anymore either. It is what it is and sometimes I have to deal with it. Thanks again, and hope your week will be spectacular!
