DEEPLY FIT
IF ONLY
YOU CAN NEVER TAKE BACK SOMETHING THAT HAS ALREADY PASSED.
YOU CAN, THOUGH, TAKE ACTION PRESENTLY SO THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY ANYMORE "IF ONLY'S".
"IF ONLY I had told them how much that I Love them. But I didn't, and now they're gone...And I can't.
IF ONLY I had put a little money aside, here and there, that spare change would have accumulated into enough to do something that I've always wanted to do.
IF ONLY I had taken a few classes a year, my degree would be in my hands right now.
IF ONLY I had thought about things before I reacted, that person's feelings wouldn't be hurt.
IF ONLY I had finally gone and donated my time to the Soup Kitchen like I've always said that I would, then maybe I would understand the word "APPRECIATION" better.
IF ONLY I had worked on eating healthier and exercising, then I wouldn't be sitting here wishing that I was healthier and I would feel better about my body.
IF ONLY I had called my good friend a little sooner, then that person and I would be closer as friends, and we could both support one another better in the trials and tribulations of life.
IF ONLY I had set aside some time just for myself for reflection and comfort, then maybe I wouldn't be as stressed as I am.
IF ONLY I had hugged more people then I would be more fulfilled, as well as taken part in the fulfilling of them.
IF ONLY I had accepted the helping hand offered to me and erased my pride, I would be much better off now.
IF ONLY I was taller, or shorter, or thinner, or had more money, or had more hair, then I would be happier wouldn't I ???
Or would I ???
IF ONLY I woudn't have procrastinated on all the things that I'm still procrastinating on.
IF ONLY I had reached out to that person when I could tell that they needed me, maybe they be better off now.
IF ONLY I had not drank and then drove.
IF ONLY I had quit smoking a few years ago, I wouldn't have the health problems that I have now.
IF ONLY I had not been so stubborn.
IF ONLY I had used a little more patience.
IF ONLY I had called them sooner and told them how I really feel about them.
IF ONLY I had organized my day better, then I would have more time for the things that are really important to me.
IF ONLY I had given some change to the man on the side of the road with the sign reading, "Please Help - Need Food", and told him that I care about him. Maybe that would have been enough to encourage him to hold out just one more day. And just maybe if he would have lasted one more day, his relatives would have found him and put him in rehab. And one year later he has a job and a place to live, and is surrounded by people who really care about him. And he always still thinks about that "ONE PERSON" who cared enough to help him just a little. And that little bit of help was enough to get him through. And he tears up and cries when he thinks about them. And he prays for them every night before going to bed.
IF ONLY I had taken the advice on this page to Heart and took action, then maybe I could fill my life with much more Joy and Happiness.
