overflows with — 
what could have been

    A statement so true that it seems self evident but said in so poetic form that it stays in the mind like ripples in a pone. Lovely Jerry

      Thank you so much, Soren. I will live on that piece of cake today.

          I think I have learnt more in my life we the things I shouldn't have done. 🌹 Wonderful short and to the point. 🌹

          Hell yes jerry - but what actually happened was engaging and in some cases rewarding, and despite it all I'm here now without too many regrets... it's just that explorations of those missed byways could have been a mite interesting....

            Thanks, Dave. It could have been indeed.

            What if...? the most unanswered question in life Jerry.

              Hi Andy. That's for sure.
              Most of my writing projects start with that question.
