Taking Risks

Today I mailed a letter to someone who I haven't seen for almost 30 years. In the letter I said some things that maybe I shouldn't have. But this is the new me. I'm going to be a risk taker from now on. If it means putting my heart out there and being vulnerable, so be it. That is better than keeping it locked away where no one can touch it. I don't know what the response will be to my letter, but I've already put it in the mail. No way to change it now. What's done is done. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I guess that is a good way to look at life. What's done is done. The past is past. Nothing I can do to change it now. Someone told me recently, "Make peace with your past, so you don't mess up your present."
