I guess what I'm wondering about is that fixation on what you didn't get to do that is blinding you to so many other things you could try, and don't... because nothing, in your mind, could possibly compare to what you never got the chance to try.
You rob the rest of your life based on an experience you haven't had?
Are you afraid to dream because you think that if you do, that will get snatched away from you, too -- before you get the chance to try that?
