Ghosts of Lifetimes Past.....

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you. Just when you think you've got it all figured out, you get thrown a curve ball. You live, you learn, you finish the chapters in your life and move on. But what happens when someone opens a book you thought was long finished? The "what ifs" and "I should haves" begin rolling around in your head. But is it enough to reconsider the direction your headed in?

The past will always shape the future, but to what extent? I guess the real question is, "How much do I want it to?". Only I can answer that, but I have to be completely honest about intentions, desires & reality.

The past, both good & bad, is what has built me up to be where I am now. I truly like who I am and how I've grown. And although in hindsight I would have made better decisions at certain points in my life, I understand that it is a constant learning process. I have lived through many experiences and look forward to many more, whatever they may be. But I can't help but wonder.....
