Don’t want to look over my shoulder and see regrets
Want to live a life of happiness, rich fulfillment, giving and, mostly, love
Can’t go back once grown
Too late
Disillusioned

A positive outlook indeed….no regrets when one gives much.

you presented the struggle well… I think we all wrestle with this at one time or another

I like how you’ve pieced this together and have left us with a sense of “hanging” ~ because this speaks with a tone of both “no regrets” (more or less – at the very least, more positive than not, and of acceptance of those less than great moments) – and then ends with “too late/disillusioned” ….. so where, exactly are we? hovering, yet not unreasonable …. for it does seem to suggest wisdom of acceptance and the willingness to keep moving forward ….
although your sister Mary shared the link to the Tuesday Platform – please, don’t be shy – feel free to drop by the Garden and stop in to see what others have written or to share again, for any of the other prompts as they come up – we don’t bite and welcome new people to join us in their poetic endeavours!

It would be best, if no regrets appear when looking over the shoulder…but I’m afraid it is the human condition…we all have some.

It is. As I try (and I mean try) to tell my kids “go for what you want now for you will be happier in the long run”. Ahh, but they know best. Right? Lol
