Day 157-Pondering Our Ponderings

My dear friend Kellie and I have known each other for over 25 years.  As we visited over dinner tonight, we both wondered how so many years could have possibly gone by.  How can we be this age already?  Have we or have we not accomplished or become what we thought we would when we contemplated our future lives so long ago?  Have we accomplished many valuable and important things, but not all that we envisioned?   Have we transformed our lives with  numerous opportunities in front of us or do too many choices make it hard to choose the actual things that will help us become better?  

When I sat down to write my blog, these thoughts came to mind to answer the ponderings in our hearts:  "Should have's" and "could have's" are in the past.  Try not to worry about what "might have been".  We can't be and do everything that we ever wanted, but we can enjoy the present moment that will help us grow into the person we are meant to be.  Start with now, try the best we can, hope for the future, and peace will come.
