Hindsight & Foresight

Hindsight is reflection of events that happened and hopefully learning from them. Foresight is having intuition to events before they happen or just plain "dumb luck" to do the right thing. Sometimes hindsight will just paralyze your life if you let it. Looking back at events and learning from them is constructive, but getting stuck in these reflections is destructive. Knowing the difference is the challenge. Kinda like playing poker, when to hold and when to fold. Another of life's little lessons. Some say age is wisdom but I thinks life's experiences are wisdom if you let them be. The events of the past year have been the toughest of my life and the most challenging, but probably have taught me the most also. Life is a journey with sometimes having foresight, using hindsight, and at times knowing when to fold. Knowing when to throw up your hands and say "shit happens", I can't change destiny, I have to accept it. I have to live the best I can and be as happy as possible until the next event, hoping it's good.
