Sen. Sem.

I was sitting with a friend outside. It was late at night, we had a smoke, and a bottle of MD 20/20 Red Grape Wine (perhaps the worst wine wine you'll ever encounter in the Discount aisle). We were talking Life, and he said, "The problem with (****) is that it only ever works in hindsight. You can never predict the future. You can only do the best you can with the information you have at the time and hope it works out for the best.
That's a rabbit....not a squirrel."

It is easy to think about the "what if's" of life. It's harder to sit down and come to the realization, to the actual knowledge, that all of your life's actions have led to you the specific moment you are in. It is great to evaluate Life with Hindsight and information gained since then...but as my friend said, "You do the best you can with the information you had at hand."
