Do you agree with this philosophy? A poem?
Regret and Rue
Regret and rue
The things we do,
Waste not one moment longer.
What we mistake
For broken dreams,
In fact will make us stronger.
We only fail
To find our dream
The day we fail to try,
There is plenty
Time enough
To quit the day we die.
I.W.A.D....much better. Thanx

We only fail
To find our dream
The day we fail to try,
There is more time
To try again
And quit the day we die.

Yes, I agree to an extent.. we should always strive for our personal best but wasting time worrying about what didn't happen or what isn't what we wanted to be only delays and prevents us from reaching our personal best which requires focus as well as positive attitude.

Each broken dream
A new window opens
Brings new visions of Love and Hope
