“Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new end.”
–Anonymous

We all have situations and actions we wish had happened differently.  Some of these had a large impact on our life while others had a relatively small impact.  Since these situations and actions are in the past, there is nothing we can do to change them.  Dwelling on them will not change anything.  However, we can make a significant, positive impact on our lives; what we do now will change our future in small ways and sometimes in relatively large ways.  The end of our life’s story has not yet been written and we can create a whole new ending based on what we do from this point on.

What ending is my life heading toward right now?  Is that the ending I would like to have?  What can I do from this point on to move my life in the direction of the ending I want?
