Thursday Thirteen #54 Self-Reflection Edition

[xakara]

Greetings, Kittens!

Recently a few people from my past have cropped back up and it got me to thinking about all of those who won't have that opportunity for one reason or another. Some people who played significant parts in my life for good or ill will never know where things stand now. So in honor of all that has gone before to shape me into the person I am, I present you the 13 Things I Should Have Said.

Enjoy.

13 Things I Should Have Said

1. I'm sorry

2. I forgive you

3. I understand

4. It doesn't have to be this way

5. You didn't know any better

6. You had no right

7. You matter

8. It's not too late

9. It's okay

10. This will pass

11. I see you

12. I hear you
13. I could love you

We all look back wishing we had said those things at some point in time. Its sad, wisdom is wasted, if we knew then what we know now, things would be so much different. By the time we learn, much of the time, its too late. Great T13!

I don't think wisdom is wasted, I think wisdom is earned. If we didn't go through all of the times that teach us, we'd never learn anything. I do agree that if we aren't continually reflecting back on what we've learned and what we wish to learn, knowledge comes to late and opportunities pass us by.
