Default Thought for Today

This thought is so relevant to me right this minute. I am am sitting here feeling really down about something and i am doing exactly as the second part of your thought says looking regretfully at what was, so maybe i should look forward.

I like that one Mary, so so true and what an inspiration Helen Keller was to so many people.
