Choices we made in the past are the foundation of what we are today.Yeah?
I wonder how many of us have regrets versus those that are content with their choices.
Understandable - it would be a safer thing to observe rather than participate, I imagine a head shrinkWhen I think of "going back", my thoughts are more of a fly on the wall to observe rather than to change.
That's freakin' awesome.I wanted to add this on to the end of my last post.
A feeling that was so awesome that I’d like to relive it, every day.
I’m driving my then teenage daughter to soccer practice.
I’m in the wrong lane, I have to turn around and go in the other lane, other direction to drop her off so that she doesn’t have to cross traffic on foot. The entire block is taken up by cars dropping kids off for practice.
There’s a space of about twenty feet between two cars beside me, in the opposite lane. Without thinking I crank the wheel and punch the gas. I burn a perfect 180 and slide sideways into the spot. Perfectly, and I mean perfectly. My kid looked at me with such awe, it was great. Every soccer mom was thinking of me the next time she had sex. It was ******* amazing, and I could never pull that off that perfectly again.
To borrow from an earlier post.........

This is how I'm trying to live now. And you know what? It's hard as hell. 40+ years from when things went in the crapper, is a lot of mess to break free from. I don't feel suicidal, not even the slightest bit, but there are days I'm tired of trying to figure out how to make change and I end up feeling so done.
the cute girls in school and that nervous feeling I got when I went up to talk to them....
Huh? You should get some help, friend.Memories suck! The bad ones are bad, and the good ones are worse! I would love to be able to forget.
Do it over again?? No thanks, I’m looking forward to the end.
But I wonder how many bad things that happened to us were springboards for us doing and/or living life the way we do now.
This is a great photo! Just something so cool about it.At 35, I was still building houses and loving it. I just bought the Charger, I was in the early days with Mary, my future wife...
