Do-Over

If life included do-overs, I'd change some things. I'd erase much of the hurt. I'd hug my daddy more. I'd leave toxic relationships sooner. I'd take things slower, realizing haste leads to hurt. I'd stress less. I'd laugh more. I'd love only the people who would love me back, and I'd forget about those who wouldn't or couldn't. I'd take more chances. I'd face more fears. I wouldn't get depressed. I wouldn't let myself worry or feel anxious.

I think I'd like another life, please.
