I sometimes drive myself nuts thinking if only I would have done this my life would have been better. I remember back in 1997 during my first marriage, (lol yeah this is the 2nd time down this road for me) I had a little extra money at one point, I said to wife, "maybe I should buy some of this yahoo stock with this" she did not agree. We took a vacation instead.
Just about a month ago I came 1 digit away from winning the states pick 5 lotto. If only.....
I guess part of detaching is also to let go of past regrets? If only I would have done this..... If only this would have happened..... If only she would have done this....
The only thing I got left is the rest of my life. That might be 20 minutes, it might be 40 years. I need to do the best I can with it!
