It seems to me that in life, we all get a share of loss and a share of joy. Midlife is when we can look back and decide what to keep. With no effort at all, the pain of loss will find us. Or with only a little effort, we can look for the joy and it will fill us.
We live only in the present and if we choose to keep only the pain, it will embitter the present and poison the future.
