The Past

I can’t stop thinking about it. I wish I could go back. I would do things so much differently. It would be better. I would know what to say. When to say it. Know what things to avoid. What to do more of. Less of. What to keep on going. I would know what mattered. What things, in the overall picture, did not matter.

I could do all of it so much better. I could change the past to improve my future.

By the past, I mean 10 years ago. I mean when I was born. I mean a 1 year ago. I mean highschool. I mean college. In every year of my life, every month, every day, there has always been a second of, “Man, I wish I could take that back,” “I wish this was different,” “I wish this worked out.”

But I can’t change it. None of it. It will forever be with me. All my faults, actions, and inactions.

So? Where do I go from here?
