What do you think?
Hind sight is perfect vision,as I look back and realize ,all the times I should have turned left,or right? In 20/20 clarity I see missed opportunities,bad choices and a lot of wrong turns....in foresight I see the same muddled confusion that will be my future regrets....in seeking clear vision ,wiser decisions,I ask ,how do you see those left and rights before you pass them up? I set goals and yet missed the mark so many times..as motherhood takes the wheel,unexpected bumps and bruises bend the rudder,and yet I look back and see in perfect clarity,it could have been different,..there was a better path...so how do you know before it's too late,do you read the tarot,check your horoscope daily,follow a preacher,well I'm too hard headed for that.. just continue to muddle through?so how does a person turn their hindsight into foresight?In hopes of giving the best life possible to the ones who count on me the most,...I'm asking,is there a secret to it?

- Would have, should have, could have, but you didn't. Life is full of choices, and there is a learning curve. This is why parents try to give thier children a heads up on life's lessons, only to be ignored. Set smaller goals and learn from the failures. This is what humankind has always done. Learn from your mistakes and move on. I enjoy reading the horoscope daily, and try to live by wisdom given, but don't take it seriously. Just take each day as a gift and a learning experience, and go on enjoying life.
- Yes, you develop a mind of your own, and a perspective on life. You have already done this. Congratulations.
- Ah, Yeah, Kind of going through the same thing myself. The harsh truth is, you can't change the past. All you can do is learn from it and move on. And living in the future will get you nowhere, it will only fill you with worry and self-doubt. You have to live in the here and now. Enjoy every moment because it's all we get. I know that's incredibly hard to do. Life is unfair and imperfect. That's not easy to accept. All you can do is try to think positive. Don't dwell in the past. Just go live your life and do what's in your heart. If another problem arrives, deal the best you can. If it doesn't go right, then just learn and keep going. Don't let it get you down. There's no way to know the future. We have to make mistakes. There are no big secrets. It's up to you to change the way you think. There are a lot of help books out there. Maybe you should try some of those. They can help you train your mind to have a different perspective. That's all you really need to do. And, Just enjoy life for what it is.
- When you relax, sit back and ponder a bit, it seems absurd that we would even attempt to demand that life unfold as we insist it should.Here we are a tiny speck floating through space on a somewhat larger speck, Earth. Could it be that life might know far better than we what we need?Could it be that what we are sure is good for us, our victories, are in fact self-defeating? And might it be what we resist, our defeats, are in fact what we need to realize our full development? Is it possible that within the pain of being thwarted lie many valuable lessons? No one ever grew character attaining their desires. It is the defeats and challenges that forge true character. Yes life is the marvelous teacher, let life lead.
- In all fairness, compassion, and intuitive experience backed by knowledge for what it feels like to have a broken "too late-o-meter"..My only advice, or suggestion would be..in four or five parts..A. Never try to make others bear the weight of your problems(or begin to believe a few kind words may end theirs)B. Never stick around long enough to watch the destruction of ones life due to the cruel "un-intentional"things others do and say. C. Never allow ANYONE to come between you and your children (unless it's to protect either of you) and in conclusion....The true secret is....Know when it's time to say goodbye for good to those who really won't take your advice anyway.
- Secret? I'd say just spend time with the kids..You will regret it if you don't..So will they. Eenif it's cleaning or doing dumb stuff together. Never trust anyone to do that for you. Life is not a boat ride....But if yours turns into one...just wear thicker clothing, a life preserver with a pocket for a Bible...and make sure the ones you love are safe for the whole trip. Being hard headed is one thing....Being Closed Minded, Well, That is not wise. Never turn your back on a friend, or look back on your missed goals....Set new ones or try the same ones over. God Bless The Breeze that Cooled My Skin in the Sun Today.
- What you focus on you create. Focus on all the right turns you've made. Know that there are more correct turns, and that each creates the Who you are.
