On Regrets both Real and Imagined

There are regrets and there are regrets.  There are people I wanted to stay with, and people I wanted to leave.  There are jobs that I should have stuck with, and those I should have left earlier. There are places that I might still want to visit, and those that I wouldn't be caught dead in. 

There are incidents in my past that I wish I had had a chance to think about while they were happening -- I would have reacted differently perhaps. I would have taken advantage of the situation; I might have left myself more open and more vulnerable.

Some of the people I have known wanted to know me better, and I reneged. Some people I have worked with, wanted to work with me on a deeper level; and I reneged again. Some of the people I have known loved me deeper than I did them, and I am sorry about all of that. I loved them and all the opportunities I have had, even the missed ones. Odd irony of existence!!
