She should have realized that life was going to pass her by, that things left undone were going to haunt her, tormenting her with reminders of “I can do this later,” or “There will be more time tomorrow.” The problem with those thoughts were that tomorrow was only an assumption. There she stood, at the end of life, stuck somewhere between past and future, a present, so empty, yet so suffocatingly full of questions, “What if? What might have been? Could I have prevented this? There was no other way but forward, into the light, and no other thought except “I wish I do it all again, differently.”
“If you don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that.”
