Was there ever in anyone's life span a point free in time, devoid of memory, a night when choice was any more than the sum of all the choices gone before?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm a creative person who had a lot of dark time in my life. I can still get to it: I can still go to a relationship or a time when things weren't great. But it's getting further and further from me.
Some choices we live not only once but a thousand times over, remembering them for the rest of our lives.
Regrets are idle; yet history is one long regret. Everything might have turned out so differently.
There was no active, conscious decision-making point, just a gradual realization over time that I'm very happy minus children and marriage.
In history as in human life, regret does not bring back a lost moment and a thousand years will not recover something lost in a single hour.
As I recall, my life as a child was so all-consuming that I barely had time to consider the future.
Sometimes things happen in life, sometimes they don't. Don't get me wrong: I have no regrets - if I could turn the clock back 10 or 20 years, I wouldn't want to fundamentally change the path my life has taken.
There are perhaps no days of our childhood we lived so fully as those we spent with a favorite book.
You can be aware of the passing of time without being nostalgic.
As the sun sets, we've all had those nights where you question your choices and where your life is going.
