It is visions of our past that create the being we are today... it is any wonder then... when we reflect on different aspects of our lives... is the melancholy from regret of word... spoken and unspoken... action... done or left undone... dream... seen or unseen... gift... given or unused... resolution... resolved or never achieved... moment... lived or left untouched... will there ever be a time when we stand back and measure our days not by what has been undone and regret... but what was created out of the broken pieces... when our eyes are in constant hindsight... our path for tomorrow is forever mired in scene of what was... what could have been... what will never be... the window of vision into the unseen has remarkable color should one choose to use a wide eyed approach...
It is hard waiting for the other shoe to drop... this can apply to so many areas of life... financial security... job security... health... children... family... all of these things are difficult enough in their own way... what is most difficult is waiting for another to twist the knife... we as human are such flawed creatures to begin with... with the three fingers that point back as we call out the failure of others... it is enough just to keep the eyes in the back of the head open wide to protect us from the inevitable... often we know that which is about to happen... yet there are times when we never see it coming... it is not always about doing what is right... it is more often about doing what is necessary that gets us into trouble... and there in lies the rub... we do what we feel to be right to make the wheel turn and others just can't bare the thought of not having control... whether gained or earned... and as the aftermath of what is left behind... the question remains......
