Don't Regret the Past

Inspiration: this is from the book I have quoted before, and I just love: THE 100 SIMPLE SECRETS OF HAPPY PEOPLE by David Niven, Ph.D. page 35
Secret number 29;
Don't think "what if"
Spending your time imagining what would have been if you could have changed some little thing, some little decision in your life, is counterproductive and leaves you unhappy. Think about how you can improve for the future, but don't waste your present thinking about how you could have changed the past.

If we could, my friend Mary Ann, and I would have gone to Dr. Manso http://www.drmanso.com/ YEEEAAARRRSS ago, way back in the late 80's or early 90's.... Mary Ann lived only blocks from Dr. Manso's previous office in Houston. She worked only blocks from where his office is now. We often think about how if only we had known about him then, we could have avoided the conditions which created oh so many of the illnesses and and for sure, our hysterectomies. If only, if only, if only. When you are here, right now, woulda, coulda, shoulda, doesn't do any body any good. Just pick up where you are and thank God, you are being introduced to new and better ways to heal your body and keep it well, NOW!

God Bless!
