Coulda. Woulda? Shoulda!
Regret is not something anyone should ever waste any time on. It's done. It happened. Sometimes I worry that I don't regret--someone once said in response, "you're a better person than me." Considering who said it, I am inclined to agree with him. Trust me, you would too. So, this post title is exactly how I feel about what could have been. Moving forward is much trickier if you're walking backwards. Perfect example: a few months ago, I was with a group of girls, and one, Elizabeth, asked another, Carrie, about her job. But I answered for Carrie! And, I couldn't stop, which made it worse. But at that moment, I don't think I knew any better or realized what I was doing. Elizabeth kept asking questions and I kept answering. To my credit, I did know something about Carrie's job and what was being asked, but not nearly enough to keep flapping my gums. Maybe I'm being hard on myself, but I would have wanted to slap me...
