There are so many things
They follow me on a chain
That I pick up and drag…
I want to drop the chain
But I can’t, my hands are empty
Because it’s held by my brain.
There are so many things that I regret
The list is longer than I can write here
Each day brings more regrets
I regret that I do not learn from past regrets.
I regret not saying I am sorry
I regret not forgiving and moving on
I regret not being fully honest
I regret not letting you in
I regret…
Reminders of past failures
Ever in the forefront of my mind
Getting lost in the confusion
Reality that I live in
Emotional
Trying and failing
Sorry
REGRETS—-Remember Emotions (which gave) Good Results Else Toss (it away)…Shove (it away)
I just made that. Regrets are useless, droanage of energy futile..

Who among us is free from regrets? They are the titanium cage that holds us in. Look for the paper clip that will jiggle the lock loose!
