Hindsight

Hindsight is a funny friend,
pointing backward with a smile
and a laugh~
"Wonder why that was so hard?"
she asks,
a little wiser now.

Hindsight is a helpful friend,
if you only hang out with her
on special occasions.
"Remember that time..."
she asks, and you flinch
just a little bit~
then laugh.

You were a different person then.
But so was everyone else.

Today is the first Monday of the new year,
and all Hindsight has to say
is "Go for it".
She is tired of reminding you
of what you already know.
She's ready to remind you
of how prepared you are
for this moment.
NOW.
