Time and Regrets

“How did it get so late so soon?”
- Dr. Seuss 




Time seems to slip by so fast. You mean to do so many things but you put them off. Often you find that it’s too late to do them, and are left with the bitter taste of regret. You meant to take that cooking class, you meant to call, and you meant to keep in touch. For some reason you seem so busy, it just doesn’t feel important enough until you’ve missed the opportunity.

The funny thing about those regrets is they start to stack up and the more you dwell on one, the more they pile up. It turns into a never ending cycle of things undone, haunting regrets, and a life unlived.

As horrible as that is, there’s a pretty simple answer to this massive burden we are intent on carrying around.

Do.


That’s it.


A two letter word.


Go back and take that class, pick up the phone.


It’s not really too late to do what you really want to do. Just start now. 


I just did.
