Ironic....

Amazing at what we let pass us by in life. Not one to dwell on past mistakes, mishaps, or regrets. Always one to see the bright side of a gloomy situation. Smiles in the face of adversity. One that is always there for that shoulder to cry on. But, I feel I could have done a better job in a certain episode. Felt this way for a little while but it was recently solidified. Feel I could have put forth a valiant effort. Any type of effort. Feels that I should have nip things in the bud on a prior and make a move on a new. But, ol school, hard-headed Izzo sticks to his guns. Didn't pick up on hints, cues or body language. Made an assumption. The incorrect one at that. Only one person to blame. *Looks into mirror and salutes self*

Not the first time. Probably won't be the last. Strangely this one stings a lot more. Normally, I have no f*cks to give. But, all the f*cks were given in this case. Feels like I fumbled at the goaline. Right there for the taking and didn't reach out and grab it to secure it. Played it cool like it didn't bother, but it truly did. Has for awhile. A man always knows when something is better than the rest. A greater man makes an effort to possess great things. On my path to be that greater man..

Turns on iPod, selects shuffle on my "Slow Groove" playlist. This dreary day culminates with "Next Lifetime" by Erykah Badu providing the soundtrack of this strange 24hr marathon. Ironic...too ironic *face palm*
