Some Regret Is a Good Thing

Continue along life’s path with some regret For it reminds us of things we might have done That, in hindsight, might have been the best yet Or, maybe another hour of unadulterated fun! written December 10, 2021

This deserves some thought Milton, some regret, yes but then again if we are at all satisfied with who we are today, some learning would have taken place from life lessons!! Happy Saturday!!

I see your point, Mike. Yes, you're right. But, I can think of some times in my life when I should have done this or that for the good of all. Now, I regret not taking the road I should have taken. Not a huge regret, you understand, but maybe a little tinge. Thanks so much, Mike. Have a wonderful Saturday. I'm off to a Christmas bazaar.
