REGRETS
Would be great if my regrets
would be forgets. But they
would no longer be regrets
if I had forgotten them. Yep ….
Forgiving self – talking them
over with another – those 2
mind switches and strategies
sometimes work – plus doing
what I did and comparing my
mistakes with the mistakes
and sins of another – that’s
another way of dealing with regrets.

THE FUTURE
The future is always sitting there
watching and warning and getting
ready for more of us – whether we
like it or not. Silent! The watching
and the waiting are usually silent.
Those older than us show us what
we might become. So better be careful.
The future: how much can we do
about it? How much can we change
about ourselves which we don’t like
in those around us? A little or a lot!
Pay attention. Time
will tell all.

HARBOR
Make sure you pause whenever you are
In a harbor. Look around. Study the scene.
It’s the place of metaphor and image. It’s
different than so many other places. It’s
all about giving and receiving – life. It’s
all about arrivals and departures. It’s
the place of many more stories than
airports – going way, way back into history.
The Illiad and the Odyssey – Paul’s journeys….
Water and the sea = the liquid meandering
of so many lives that have gone before us.
