Wasting Time

Wasting time regretting for past failures is the surest way our future successes to undermine!

Herr Professor!! A most appropriate Monoku for sure. I think this very well-articulated verse is appropriate for sure for those people in Great Britain who voted for the "Brexit." I always enjoy your Monoku verses very much. A "SEVEN"!! Cheers and Best, Gary

Very true, Jan, it becomes difficult and in cases impossible but if we understand the futility of our regretting then it becomes easier to move ahead! Thank you my friend for your gracious visit and comment! Hugs
