The Road Not Taken

I wish this was water under the bridge – instead, your choices are a constant drip, a flood of tears, a deluge forcing me to back-track, take a detour, set up pylons where a simple drain should suffice. We’ve been down this one before. Perhaps next time, we could try the road not taken?

I wish this was

water under the bridge –

instead,

your choices are a constant drip,

a flood of tears,

a deluge

forcing me to back-track,

take a detour,

set up pylons

where a simple drain should suffice.

We’ve been down this one before.

Perhaps

next time,

we could try

the road not taken?

    Beautiful thoughts on regret…

      Thank you! It’s good to remember that to get to a new place, you must take a different approach. It’s never too late…

      1. ljlenehan

        True…

    Nicely done.

      Thanks! I find it so odd how often human behaviour travels down the same path even when the results are frustrating. Change is hard – even good change!

        I used to enjoy purposely sitting in chairs where others sat just to get their reaction. And that’s a small thing!

        I bet you got some doozies! 😀

        It is entirely possible I enjoyed it more then them.

        Now THAT made me laugh right out loud! Good for you!
