Wouldn't it be nice in life if we could use the "backspace" key whenever we actually do or say something really stupid?
Better yet, what if we could backspace when other people say careless words. I mean the kind of comment that gets tossed your direction in the grocery store over the granny smith apples, right after "Hey how are ya? Good to see you again!".
Then again, because it was obviously not intended to cause pain, these little spears and arrows should be taken advantage of- pointing the way to areas in our lives where we could use a little healing, a chance to root out some lies and get a truth injection.
The only real way OUT is THROUGH.
Ouch.

I like that Joyce...our not being able to go back forces us to go through. Your perspective on the through is more of an acceptance of it rather than being forced. Living in the "through" and living in the moment, I guess, are much the same. Great post...short and delicious, like those Granny Smith apples.
If we could backspace I'd have backspaced to before I was even conceived, so it's a good thing we can't... :)
I hope you're joking, as the world would be less lovely and interesting if you went the route of backspace...
