A Regret

~words of wisdom~




                                                          a regret can grow..


                                                like a tree that blocks your sight..


                                                       then you can't see past..

Sara Kendrick Date: 3/5/2011 9:12:00 AM Very good advice...Best to get an apology out there and put that regret behind.. When one has done what they can do.. They have done what they could to correct the past mistake then they don't have to live with regret....Sara Login to Reply
