i wonder
~why~
today?
why do these ~tears~
fall?
Perhaps it was all the memories i sifted through
yesterday...
the boxes full of photos
mixed in with all the recent tragedy...
because
i just can't help wondering
today...
what
we would do...
what we would say...
if we could start the day again?
would we make the same choices?
go through all that pain?
would we make time...
run differently?
if we could start the day
again...

Good question, Vicki. Hmmmm... I have thought about it a lot over the years, and there are certainly things that I would just NEVER do again, but these are minor incidents. The bigger memories would be more tricky, because if we removed them completely,then we would no longer be the sum total of those experiences - no longer who we are right now.
I really like the person I am now, even though I think some of my memories STINK to high Heaven. I guess I wouldn't want to sart over.

hi Vicki! I'm with Natalie on this one. I have my past too, and i believe it to be a gift. It wasnt always easy, or pretty, or complete. BUT what it gave me is abundance- more love, more commitment, more compasion. I sometimes wish "if I knew then what I know now", but in the end, I'm accepting of it all.
Love to you dear friend!
~I too have things in my past~that I don't care for~but, there are more things about my life that I love~& if those uncared for things did not happen~ neither would all the loved things happened~
~beautiful words~
be present Vicki.
I am sorry you are having a dark cloud day- they are no fun, and yet when the sun comes out, it will have never shined so bright.

Hmmmm
No I wouldn't....the others said it all really.
Without the pain we wouldn't appreciate the joy.
But then again, how do we know?
One of each day is all I can handle.
One day of choices, memories, even if I did it over and over, I'm sure once I started I would need to change just one more thing...
