I originally wrote this about 2 years ago and posted it i have sense taken it down, but to day I am re-posting it. even at a different time in my life then when I wrote this, I still feel it applies. I still have no regrets in what I have or will do in this life, and there is no need to worry. more after the poem…
I saw your face for the first time in over a month today. I feared for you that only lasted about 2 minutes. No Regrets No Worries
I am happy now, happier than I ever was. No longer on the anti-depressants and I have Friends and Family that you could never comprehend. I live with No Regrets No Worries
The Passion, Fire, love, and lust, all belong to me. You will never know what drives my inner soul. No Regrets No Worries
You have once taken my soul and I gave it willingly. now that soul has returned unto me, and it is mine to give to whom I choose, and for this live better No Regrets No Worries
I originally wrote this after I saw my now ex-wife we were separated at the time and she was in a transitional period. I find this poem fitting as it is the eve of our 1 year anniversary of divorce. the reference to my soul can better be interpreted my heart. I was in a very different part of my soul journey trying to figure things out. but as you may now know I have re-dedicated my life to Christ and his will. Ergo I really enjoy doing the work he has set out for me to do.
I choose to say that I have no regrets because every decision we make we shape our future and learn different things. think of a choose your own adventure book here, choose what to do and go. You can not always go back and choose a different path you have to continue on the path you have chosen. But a path can wind back and forth and some paths cross and others run together for a time. but in the end it is the decisions you make that you can regret, but don’t they help mold who you are.
No worries, this is actually biblical here. Jesus states in Matthew 6:25-34 that worrying is fruitless and does nothing for your life.
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life ? 28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
So what do you think, do I have this all wrong?
