Entertaining? It's terrible to me. I hate that feeling of wishing I did something different, and constantly thinking about what could be different now if I did...


For me, it's not wishing so much as simply entertaining the thought.

I don't like to think about the past, and I'm not trying to worry about the future.

That doesn't really make any sense though.
The past isn't malleable or anything so as soon as you get into those "what if I dids?", you're essentially projecting that into some perverse future-tense.
There's no such thing as "if only I had done that....." because you didn't do it. So, it's nothing you need to get worked up over in any way shape or form.

Not sure deep is the right word for it.

i live in the past and die in the future. the present is neither here nor there. moments stretch into more moments and memories fills in the gaps, where nights become consumed again within the past. what was and what became and what might have been never quite escape my mind, and remain upon my heart. tapes that stop and rewind at the very start. the things i care most about are the lost opportunities at a more kinder, learned and gentle humanity, where i could have done much more, and instead felt and thought but never acted out what i wished and then died for. it's not fun to live inside one's head. a blur, a mess, a mystery half gloom and half glad. peaks of greatness turn lows of sadness. the past is never gone, our history has breath, and we embody the rest, into a collection, a form, a frame of both the worst and the very best. it is foolish, for me, to only look ahead.

I agree with this sentiment.

However I recently found my old childhood love and contacted her, she has a black boyfriend now, I like to think I started the trend, her interest in black men.

Past should stay as it is however, cant change anything anyway.

The other day, when I was making out with this girl at her house, I was cockblocked my her grandma. I asked her if she had any good hiding places, but she insisted that she was too scared. Stupid me forgot to suggest that we could have gone in my car, or at the very least gotten a bj.

I am the opposite. I dream all day about things I would do, yet never really do. Every once in awhile I will come to realization that I haven't done anything I dreamed of.

I spend most of my time daydreaming about ways the future could play out, only consider the past infrequently when I feel like I've made a bad mistake or am trying to find reasons to hate myself and prove myself wrong, which of course is pointless

Bravo. That is beautiful. I dream of the future in all intent, only to reason why it won't come true.
