Regrettably
Texting with my classmate the day before had
brought back memories. I thought about
all the opportunities I’d wasted in high school and college, and how I managed
to drink my way out of graduate school.
Dr. Deb asked me what I was thinking.
“Thinking about my academic career. Beating myself
up over things I did thirty-five years ago,” I said.
“Good idea,” Dr. Deb said. “Tomorrow you can beat
yourself up for wasting today thinking about wasting time years ago.
We both laughed, but I knew she had a point. Regretting the past was a waste of time.
Today I won’t waste time regretting the times I’ve
wasted.
