My mother died the moment I was born, and so for my whole life there was nothing standing between myself and eternity; at my back was always a bleak, black wind. I could not have known at the beginning of my life that this would be so; I only came to know this in the middle of my life, just at the time i realized I was no longer young and realized I had less of some of the things I used to have in abundance and more of some of the things I scarecely had at all. And this realization of loss and gain made me look backward and foreward: at the beggining was this woman whose face I had never seen, but at my end was nothing, no one between me and the black room of the world. I came to feel that for my whole life I had been standing on a precipice, that my loss had made me vulnerable, hard and helpless; on knowing this i became ovewhelmed with sadness and shame and pity for myself.

After reading this recently I came to the conclusion that i dwell far too much on things in my past I had no control over and even those things i did and wasn't sure what to do with the control. I know i have made many bad and many good decisions and those definately were influenced by things that occured in earlier years but now that i think about things very indepth I realise that all the things I wish gone from my past influence the GOOD things and the accomplishments I am most proud of now. I dont really know where I;m going with this but I have alot of thinking to do on this matter so ill leave you all with this...
