Do-overs

Sometimes I really wish for some White Out (anybody remember that) for the book of life.

Sometimes it is pretty stupid, small stuff I'd like to erase -- a word taken the wrong way, an email that went too far (or not far enough) to make the point, a call not returned, etc.

Trouble is, sometimes you don't know what went wrong. Did I say something wrong, or fail to say something? Or would it have made any difference after all?

Most of the time these days I want to move on and look at the future.

But sometimes the past just won't go away -- sometimes you thing all is well and then fall through a big gap in the fabric of life -- you remember when it ripped, you know the gap is there, but you were doing better than usual at forgotting and then all of a sudden, bam, there it is again.

This may make little sense, but for some reason I'm hurting right now and I need to write it anyway.
