Fools Parade The ultimate big brother is watching The fools parade of our lives Bad things will happen in threes But good things can happen in fives So play those odds to your favor Live your life avoiding regret Otherwise you’ll poison the flavor Of the sweet cards He gave you to bet

So true, Patrick. Regret is a waste of precious time. And yes, regrets do "poison the flavor" of anything sweet in our lives. Absorb the lesson and move on. The beauty of a new day is the opportunity to re-invent yourself all over again. Do appreciate this write! Love the pic--the proverbial "eye in the sky", no?
