Oh so true, GF60. Many things to remember and many to try and forget.
Really liked your straight forward talk.
Does anyone ever achieve total satisfaction with how they lived their life? I think we all wonder what if.
Great post. Loved it. - Phil A.

Very true. Regret not love wasted, but love unshared.

regret will never remember me, so I too choose: to forget
travelling light, to that blank canvas of future possibility\'s: that await me

A wise write Andy - - thinking back to regrets can only bring negative pain - but recalling happy times endorses the positive.

ANGELA HERE - GOOD MONDAY UNCLE ANDY ! Thanks for Video & Poem. Love BORODIN (a fine CHEMIST) ! The music is nostalgic & complements the Ode.
Although im only 32 *There are regrets Ive had a few -
but then again too few to mention*
In my short life the Joys have so far greatly eclipsed the Sads !
I read today that CROQUET was an Olympic Sport in 1900 ! Only the French entered and won all the medals. There was only ONE Spectator ~ SHAME ! We*re not posting today - but please check *NOT GOING OUT* It was posted yesterday as both a POEM & A FUSION - THANKS !

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian & Smokey !

I think it\'s a question of coming to terms with our stage of life. Fortunately life\'s ups and down give us the wherewithall to accept our failings along side those things which are pleasing. I still get the creeps from some situations i put myself in or put my foot in. I get nightmares sometimes about a job i did for three years in my late twenties.

I wish this virus would get fixed so i can start a few new memories rather than watch repeats of \'last of the summer wine\'

How quickly the future becomes the past... So many way to say Carpe Diem... this is bittersweet to us seniors... but today I rode my bike in a howling hurricane-induced storm just for the thrill and finished the day watching the little smudge of the comet though my binoculars as it vanishes more and more quickly every night... Seize the day!

A Happier Place.
dusk arising said:

Always amazes me the amount of people who walk around with a permanent grimace. Some look in pain.

I\'m sure the world is a happier place for having a few happy countenances around.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

GOOD SUNDAY ~ UNCLE ANDY ~ Love the VIDEO - The start of the Rock & Roll era 1955 - 30 years befor we were Born - When it was almost all over ! However when we have a *60s Night* for the *Over 60s* @ the Catholic Church every one is Rockin* an Rollin* to this - even those with ZIMMERS & being swung round in Wheel Chairs and even Father Joe is up boppin* with Sister Theresa ~ AMEN !
Thanks for the *Happy Poem*. Our MANTRA is:

SMILE and the WORLD smiles with You
FROWN and you frown alone !
Gospel according to St Ken Dodd !

Bleassings & Joy to YOU & YOURS
Love Angela Brian & Smokey ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’›
Never heard *ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK* @ a Funeral
I (BRIAN) am having *God be with You* by Jim Reeves.

Good write Gold.
Some, if really horrible, may be so grumpy, that when we say \'hello\', they reply aggressively \'What do you mean, hello - you looking for a fight?
Or \'Good morning\' - What\'s good about it?\' Such people are not worth knowing though.

A Moment in Nature.
ANGELA & BRIAN said:

ANGELA HERE - Thanks Uncle Andy for an inspiring video and Poem ! The SUN rises to the LEFT of our rear Garden and sets to the RIGHT. WE have Farmland to the rear so @ the weekends we see the Sun Rise & Set and many beautiful Cloud Formations. The vistas never fail to surprise - as you well know ! Thanks for sharing a sight that was new to You !

Blessings to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian & Smokey

Adrift With Nature.
Lutalican said:

Beautifully written GoldenFinch.
How great it is to be able to escape from our load and artificial world. Bathing in the sunlight and sounds of the forest, thatโ€™s what my heart longs for.

I Was There.
orchidee said:

\'We woz there\'. You and I remember carving that into tree trunks in Hastings in 1066.
Also into the rocks on the moon before the first Earthings arrived, and we came round from the other side of the moon to welcome them. We might not be human, you and I. lol.
I remember seeing \'Jaws\' and the first time, with the scene of the head appearing from bottom of the boat. We all jumped!

Life is not like a glass in any way, but I agree that a life can be \"refilled.\"
