Couldn't resist this!
I'm at that awkward stage between birth and death.
I'm pretty sure I only need one more bad decision and then I'll own the whole set. I have too many "I probably shouldn't have done that"s, and not enough “Let me think about this first”s. Sometimes, I lie awake at night and ask, "Where did I go wrong?" Then a voice says to me, "This is going to take longer than one night." I've made mistakes ... and my mistakes have made me. I used to hate mistakes, but then I realized they've taught me almost everything I know.
We all have a past. We've all made choices that maybe weren't the best ones. None of us are completely innocent but, we all get a fresh start every day to be better people than we were yesterday.
We all know what happens to the squirrel that sits on the corner of “maybe next time” and “shoulda been faster”.
You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.
