Life is too short

the most cliche statement, and yet probably one that makes more sense than a lot of the gibberish constantly thrown out into the air. I cant speak for the world, but as much as I aim to have no regrets in my life, the few I do are generally un-fixable because I didnt realize the value of this one statement till it was too late. I couldve been there when my grandmother passed away, but I was too busy living my twentieth year to the fullest, kept thinking i'd go visit, until it was too late.
if you have something to say, or somebody to visit or something to fix, do it now...
I 'm actually more in a space to write this piece now, more than I have been in my entire life. I'm standing at a place where I'm really working at trying to fix things with my family, let go of my ego a little, make a little corner for forgiveness, and another one for compromise.
There are many things, most, in fact, that we can lose but still gain back again. but there are some things, delicate things, like love and relationships and forgiveness, life and death- that once lost, perhaps cannot ever be fixed. sometimes the rifts grow wider, and bridges burn till there is nothing left-
what is the point of holding a grudge?
there are things we cannot forgive, but there are also things we can.
situations we cant fix, but also situations we can....
starting anywhere, is better than not moving at all
