A. Do you remember when men were men & you could tell it by looking, when women were the ones who wore earrings & makeup? Do you remember when men knew who they were & had confidence in themselves & in their God? They knew where God was leading them, & trusted Him to get them there.

It was 5:30 AM and the alarm had just elevated its piercing voice and shook me out of my sleep and slumber. I really didn't feel like getting up that morning. I mean I really wanted to steal a few more moments of blissful unconsciousness. It was one of those days where we had plenty to do. It was one of those days where we had to get up, pack the car, and get out on the road. You see it was time to take that long trek to see family members in a far away town. But like any trip, it required preparation. We had a lot to do.

We've all made mistakes and bad choices. We've done things we wished we could forget but somehow the memories of our past sins and temporary stupidity come back to haunt us and when that happens they turn into regrets; they become things we start to second guess:

"What if I would have..."
"Maybe I could have..."
"I know I should have..."
And when we get to that point we have become inhabitants of the land of "woulda, coulda, shoulda," the land of regrets, and that's a terrible place to live.
