In High school I had trouble seeing the value or future necessity of quite a few of my subjects. Being caught up with the wrong people did not help me see otherwise. And now, here I am; the byproduct of my past decisions. I know it's not helpful to dwell on the negatives, but one can't help feeling their life would have been different were it not for some of those naive decisions.
Obviously nothing can effect the past and it would be destructive to keep my thoughts in that place while I try to move forward.
