Writer's Block: One door closes, another one opens
[Error: unknown template qotd]
Have you ever closed the door on an opportunity or a relationship in order to open another door, only to realize you made the wrong choice?
oh, for crying ...
Yes, okay, yes. I woke up to that running through my brain this very morning: sometimes it seems like every single time I've had a binary choice, I've picked the wrong one. On the rare occasions that I do make the right choice, I manage to screw it up somehow with later choices.
I reiterate my conclusion from the last "life of regrets" Writer's Block I answered, less than three weeks ago:
You can only do something about where you're going.

Shoulda-Woulda-Coulda is toxic.
You can't do a damned thing about where you've been.You can only do something about where you're going.
Face Front.
