Major decisions change the course of lives in every way
But we are the Captain of the ship of our lives every single day
Head north, east, west or south? It’s a blessing or curse…
Good one or bad one? For better or for worse?
One fine day a major crossroad happened to me
My wife-to-be could not go along to Hawaii
So I asked to have my orders cancelled and instead the Air Force sent us to Japan
Some friends thought I was crazy; but after 28 years it's been just grand!
Yes, every now and then I think about how life would be had I gone another way
I have been to Hawaii a few times now, it’s beautiful, but without her it’s "just OK"
Why ponder about “What if’s” if we lived with good health and had lots of fun?
It's that demon inside us that tries to remind us about what we “coulda” done.
Well, I could talk about this all day and go on and on.
But I must excuse myself
I made a MAJOR decision
I am going to the john!

You are so right ....the "if's and but's" of life can blind us to the wonderful things that have happened as life unrolls, even if they didn't seem to be wonderful at the time. It's a lesson we humans have to learn and relearn every day. We forget how good God is, even in the littlest things.

It sure is, and most of us fight that demon every day.
PS: One of my cats looks just like your Sammy - I call her Munchkin.
