An Ode to Pain

If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain
If I can ease one life of aching, Or cool one pain
Or help one fainting robin, Unto his nest again
I shall not live in vain
-Emily Dickinson 1830/1886-

If in front of your eyes, you found yourself with a bunch of choices, how do you pick the one choice that does not leave you with any regrets?

Sometimes, you try your best and crack your head thinking about it.
But, even if you think really hard and very carefully and decided on a choice, would there be a moment that you might look back and think that you made the wrong choice..?
If you were the only one affected by the choice, it might be ok. Alas, if it greatly affects others, then..how do you choose?

For me, you will die before you managed to figure out if the choices you made were mistakes or not. Regardless of the choice that they made, there are some who will regret and there are others who do not.

It would be better to make your own choices as it helps too avoid blaming others on how things turn out to be. Good or bad, there is no use to think so much of something that you cannot change. Well, I guess everyone knows this already. :) And here I am trying to summarize the simple lessons of life..

A habit that dies hard..thinking out loud and writing it down..
Well past midnight. Goodnight and..leave the worries of today behind you. Tomorrow is another day.
