I heard an old man once say that
"youth was wasted on the young..."
and for years, I wondered
what that old man was saying;
it was not until I was old that I
finally understood what he meant;
do overs is what this old man was
ultimately referring to... and in
the sunset years of his life, he saw
what should have been done quite
differently... or so he claims...
but the way we lived when we were
young is the way we were supposed
to do and do overs was never part
of any considerations then or at
any time in the future... none of us
should ever want to relive our lives
as they would be lived out the exact
same way as they had been lived...
the relativity of time enables someone
to see our lives before se live them,
and in so doing, they become fixed
and permanent in time's logbook...
we simply act as we were supposed
to have acted, nothing more or less.
