Traveling Backwards

Today it seems that I am stuck on a train that is simply going backwards. It like everything I set up to accomplish this morning is out of reach and in the opposite direction. This happens from time to time and today it feels a bit extreme.  

So I guess the plan is to stop and breathe. Think about what really matters today and reset. My mind is filled with memories, what could have been, what I missed and perhaps what I should have known. 

My brother told me some things about my family that I didn’t know. I wish he hadn’t told me.  I would have been better not knowing. There are somethings from the past that should have stayed there. I didn’t need to know about the abuse that I didn’t witness. I fear it will now haunt me.

  1. You raise a really tough question. There are things I’ve found out later that I wish I didn’t know now. I like your analogy of being on a train going backward. I have the same feeling sometimes.
