Great Morning Son

December 23, 2019 By Dad Leave a Comment

Great Morning Son,

I’m thrilled to have an opportunity to say good morning to you this morning! As always, I hope that all is well and that you’re looking forward to this day as well as all the days ahead!

I’d like to share a really cool quote with you written by C.S. Lewis:

“You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.” – C.S. Lewis

What you think of that quote? Does it really resonate with you?

The quote resonates with me for a number of reasons. To start with, it gives us an opportunity to let go of past mistakes and thusly past regrets. That is vitally important because, if we really stop and think about it, focusing on past mistakes and the regrets we have because of them, is truly counterproductive.

Can you imagine what happens to a life that focuses on changing the ending rather than changing the beginning? I can tell you what happens from personal experience. The quality of your life will be transformed forever!

Focusing on past mistakes will keep us living in the past. A quote I like with regard to this says, “Forget the mistake, but remember the lesson”. As I have often heard said, “Those who do not learn from their mistakes are doomed to repeat them”.

Well, that’s all for now!

Have an amazing day and know that you are in my thoughts and prayers!

Love,

Dad
