Midlife Musings

Reflections on life from 40-something

All we can do

June25

is do the best we can do with the information we have at the time. I’m saying this to remind myself of the truth of it.

So often in life, we find out stuff later that would have changed what we did at the time. It’s still important to keep on moving forward when that happens. We cannot change the past, period. There is not one thing we can do now make the tiniest bit of difference then. It is what it is. If we fall into the trap of second guessing ourselves, and not letting ourselves move on, then we end up missing the present as well. Then we are twice-robbed, and that doesn’t do anyone any good.

If you know you did the best you could with the knowledge you had, let it go and move on. Love now. If it matters eternally, it’s already settled.

I'm Cass. I am a full-time mom to eight great children, a Christian and a blogger. I'm also a knitter, a reader and a movie watcher. And a collector of eclectic oddities.

For the first time in 18 and a half years, I have my own little corner again. Somewhere along the way, I seem to have lost myself, and now that I realize I'm missing, I'm on the look out for me. You maybe don't know what that means, but then again, maybe you do. Regardless, this is where I'll be when I'm not being a mother or a knitter. This is where I'll be just me. And if no one ever reads it, that's ok. I'll know it's here.
