you feel the burden of how your life impacts other people, like your kids or your community and things like that. when you're a kid you don't really understand that

Realizing that one path in life is mutually exclusive of another path, and that you must choose, and forever say goodbye to that other you that might have been.

that's a good one.
"Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and sorry I could not travel both and be one traveler long I stood..."

Embrace the path you choose and honor that choice well.

it's amazing how much of frost's work is misunderstood.
I wasn't interpreting Frost's work. The post just brought that to mind.

I'm not sure both parts of your response can be true, but ok.

I think it's okay to wonder what might have been.  If anything it causes you to take more seriously the next important decision you're about to make. 

What if I attended that Ivy League school I got into?

What if I took that job offer in Montana?

What if I try another (new) industry?

I think about if I had kept my grades up in high school and kept getting letters from Duke. What a life that would have been

don't play that game. learn from the mistake(s), put the crap behind you, and move on. stressing about things in the past will lead to a fuckup in the present.

also, you're going to make mistakes, just have your crap together so you can recover from them quickly.

I know and usually rebound well. It's just hard in the moment. And takes a couple days. Of course not taking care of my affairs only adds to things. I'll succeed. I know it.

Yes, basically feeling tired. . .always.

I especially miss staying up all night, getting like four hours of sleep and being completely functional the next day.

I'm pretty sure I was worse at this when I was a kid.

Like government things you can't control, your own shitty life choices and stuff like that is more along the lines of what I meant
