No regrets; All in time

Hesitant I am, pondering , wistfully thinking.
Staring into the distance, oblivious of present surroundings.
My mind wanders...

Its so easy to look back, wondering what might, and should have been.
Maybe a different path. different outcomes , nay different opportunities.
Thinking of victories that ought to have been won; failures that could have been averted.

Flashback , another crossroad, that point where you think you made the wrong turn.
oh, how your present troubles , challenges, and mistakes; all could have just faded away, if you had taken that other path.

Perhaps you may be right, but answer ye; who made you a soothsayer or diviner
that thou knowest the turn of events,
where the sun sets, the future as it is, what the present holds.

The pain, the anguish, self condemnation, and the damaged self esteem,
All is a waste of time, and a waste of mental space.

No more I say; no more.
And with self belief, journey on my brother, walk on my sister.
Many roads still lie ahead, myriads of opportunities that will abound; if you are willing to take them.

The sacrifices you have made will be worth it.
The mistakes you have made; you will learn from them.
Different paths, and different opportunities will still turn up, if you are willing to take them.

No regrets; let that be your creed.
As you continue in this mortal sphere, filled with its own imperfections.
Surely, errors will be made, an unavoidable flaw; yet that makes us human.

So with self belief, journey on my brother, walk on my sister.
Prepare well for what lies ahead.
For the sacrifices you have made, will indeed be worth it.

No regrets; all in time..
