DUMB Decisions

Sharyn - I saw the title and knew right away I was going to like it on account of all the dumb decisions I have made. Too bad we can't all go back and just change a few things - I highly doubt you would find anyone who wouldn't change stuff.

Super great poem - just reminds me I am not the only one - and neither are you!

S H A R Y N........ I just love you!!! The poem is beautiful and I was a bit worried that you were dwelling in remorse... for decisions that we have all made, in one form or another through the years.

I went to pour a cup of coffee before I listened to the song, which I had never heard before. I like Pink, so I thought, why not?

W E L L... I am hooked! Sis, this is our mantra! I, for one, will be bookmarking and listening to frequently... getting a "CD road" copy! I believe this is a song to ourselves. I know (broken record) I learned in 1999 that I am not supposed to be perfect! That is a job reserved for God. This song will remind me of that, so a million thanks!

Love you, baby! Have a great weekend, mar.

Without some of our Dumb decisions where would we be...a Hell of a lot SMARTER! Loved the HUb, pictures and Video, Sharyn. We've all been there and made our share, of Dumb Decisions, but hey That's Life!

Yep I have heard almost everyone say that and I never believe it! Lol right - Seriously everyone that is human has regrets - if they say they don't they are either a sociopath or lying to themselves. It's part of learning who you are and who you want to be, right?

You have a great weekend Sharyn!

Great, feeling poem. There are enough perfect people in the world; just ask any of them. They need us - all chiefs and no Indians doesn't work. And remember; if you do take the wrong path, be humble enough to admit it and change course while you can - No limit to tries.

Hi Sharyn, life it seems is one big learning curve and those dumb decisions are just part of it, but it's good to read this and realise I'm not the only one making them!! great poem thank you.

We've all been there Sharyn, wish we could go back and change the decisions we have made....yes I talk to my animals too.

Hello Sharyn...I believe that without our 'dumb decisions',we wouldn't grow...we all make mistakes,but we also learn a lesson from them.You're not alone.Forgive yourself and go forward. The past is done,the present is a gift,that is why it is called the present! Hope you are doing well,my friend.

Blessings

Sharyn..you are not alone my friend...I have made some real dumb choices too and not just once but several times, but I think I'm on the right track now. Just remember we all have been on this road and never say....'what if'...Take care....

Hi Sharyn-

Good to see you again! This is smashing! As much as you can regret all the dumb things, as I do too, you have learned so much, and become the person we all know and love! Change hurts but it also makes us grow. (I'll have to remember that one when I am whining next time)

Love this hub, images, words, everything. Up Awesome Beautiful!

Hi Sharyn...I think this poem is the result of that 'something' you've been going through, lately. I understand this feeling; rueing the day we did......and the time we said..... and the way in which we allowed ourselves to feel and care so much for...... and, upon retrospect, DAMN I wish it weren't so...that I didn't, we should have could have might have....yes, the feelings of former foibles rear their taunting and haunting heads again and again....BuT! We've learned and grown and seen ourselves as vulnerable and imperfect and....guess what!!?? It's OK! Know why? Cuz we're HUMAN and we can't help ourselves, sometimes. God knows!!

You've put into words the feelings so many have felt...we are never alone in our questions and questioning...and that, my friend...serves as a great relief..to know that, afterall...we're only human.

Bless you, Sharyn...this is why I mentioned you as I did...because you're 'right there' in the world and with us. And, we are with you, too!!!!

your friend, Kathy

I could have written this poem, and I love it. Why? Because I'm not the only one anymore that is sorry for dumb decisions made. I guess that's why we are called "human" beings. Sharyn, I admire you very much for the courage it took to write what we all feel. You have helped take the "shame" out of poor choices and bad decisions. Thank you for that. You're my heroe. :)

Hi Share...

Oh man, this poem and the song says it all. Wow. Don't worry about the title of this song offending anyone, it's f*ckin' perfect! I'm putting this one on my mp3 player.(:

I love your words, dear lady. You must be reading my mind. I'm right there with you.

Much love and big hugs and kisses,

Diana

P.S. I've missed you! Still workin' like a dog, but I'm trying to make the rounds. (:

We can't change yesterday, and we need tto go on to tomorrow. We need to learn how to bury the past. I marked you up. Check out: http://NanMynatt.RichAndTrim.com

I think we learn from every Dumb decision that we make...Life is a Learning Experience...I do feel that we can be so hard on our selves. It takes getting older to be able to separate and forgive our ways. Well done Hub on this subject Saryn.

It's not a dumb decision you write this poem. Damn it I'm an instant fan :)

Been there, done that, Sharyn! I think most of us can relate. Well done. Nice rhyme! Many votes!

So touching, and so sensitive this poem is Sharon, I loved every bit of it, and especially because at time I have felt this way, but found a way out of it all as I grew and matured in life.

Awesome poem, and I just wish I could write such passionate poetry such as you've done here. It is definitely heart warming and has a true essence to it. Voted up and out!

Very touching and inspiring poem! Read it whole! Even I believe that i have learned the most from my mistakes!

Loved the poem! Beautiful... loved the message!
