Do you know what the saddest words in life are? They are "If only...".
These words encompass regret, guilt, loss, the sense of no turning back, hopelessness. Angry words are spoken, kind words are left unsaid. Kind acts are intended but not carried out, mean acts are done in a burst of anger. Feelings are not reciprocated.
Love is lost. Trust is lost. A dream is lost. Life is lost ... time is lost. These cannot return because things change, people change, places change and time passes.
Forgiveness may be given but harm cannot be undone. Hurt is lessened with time but the scar is forever etched in out minds.
People may get back together. Love may rekindle. Life goes on but it is never the same again.
Life is short. Every kind word must be uttered immediately. Kind acts must be carried out without delay.
