“And of Course You Can’t Become...”

“And of course you can’t become if you’d only say what you would’ve done”

That line is buried in a song I loved when I was in my late teens, and still listen to today.  I never paid close enough attention to the lyrics, because half the time I had my head hanging out of a van with my face to the wind.

I saw my friend last night.  We’ve been close friends for a long time,  “Steal My Sunshine” was/is our song.  We don’t see each other often now, but when we do it’s like no time has passed.  I was listening to this song one day and this line struck a chord with me. 

  

I’ve realized over the last while that the opportunity I’ve had over the last year came at exactly the right time.

I’ve asked myself “what if I’d taken that fork in the road where would I be?”

You can waste so much time visualizing the path you could’ve been on that you miss out on the opportunities you have on the path you ARE on, 

If I can find a lyric in this song to keep me on track…well who would’ve thought!
