Flashes of memory

I recently returned to a little house that I lived in while going to college.

It's funny how memory works. I remember living there. But I don't remember day to day specifics.

I remember the feelings. The glow of emotions. Mostly the good ones. I don't remember the anger. Or the fear.

Interesting...

Don't wait

An online thing posed this question: If you could send a two-word message to yourself in the past what would you send?

My mind instantly thought: Don't wait.

As I look back on my life one of the things I remember doing over and over is waiting. I'll do that tomorrow. It's not the "best" time for this so I'll wait. Too much going on, can't take that on right now. All the excuses.

Waiting has cost me money. Has led to regrets. Had made me miss opportunities.

But waiting has also saved me from a lot of trouble. Has helped me reconsider.

It's a balance thing that's challenging.

Hmmm
