		<description>Wow. I have many what ifs myself, but I try not to think about them much.

		<description>this post spoke to me in ways that i will never be able to express.  i have been dealing with wondering about the &#039;what ifs&#039; in my own life and struggling with letting myself off the hook for some of my choices. 

the truth is, as you so eloquently stated and as hard as i find it to believe: we are who we are today because of where and who we have been .  the past is the past.  

your words have brought me to tears and i am so grateful to have found your post and to have found some inner peace.  thank you for sharing</description>

		<description>Heather, you&#039;re an inspiration to me and I&#039;ve just been reading your blog for the past couple of weeks.  God has run after you these past 10 years and carried you far.  He loves you and has an awesome plan.  Keep pressing on.</description>

		<description>Amen sister! Kind of funny how after a break up it was all their fault but you eventually take a look at yourself and realize that suddenly you aren&#039;t perfect (kind of funny I&#039;ve been in your same shoes before!). And you are right the past is the past and it&#039;s irrevelant, God wants us focusing on him and the future not the past and who we were back then.</description>

		<description>Heather,

Thanks for your tips about the Mac. It&#039;s a huge learning curve for me, and kind of frustrating at times, but mostly I&#039;m happy with it. 

It&#039;s kind of like getting married - once the honeymoon is over, you find out that the &quot;operating system&quot; you&#039;re used to (your own) is often completely different than the one you&#039;ve just acquired, and you have to choose to learn the new system, but it&#039;s hard and frustrating. 

I&#039;ve learned a lot about myself this summer and even through learning this Mac. I thought I knew a lot about computers, till I got this one. I thought I knew a lot about relationships, till I started weeding through my life&#039;s memories and seeing a lot of the same patterns throughout...

All that to say, I think you&#039;re great and I&#039;m proud of you and what you&#039;ve walked through and what you&#039;ve learned over the years of your life. Some of those questions are hard to ask yourself, but you&#039;re doing it anyway.  Good for you.

Don&#039;t ever quit!</description>

		<description>AMEN! I was already writing my response to the first part of your post, when I then realized you responded for me at the end ;) I often thought about the past and what-ifs, but I try not to stay there too long -- because God&#039;s always been watching out for me, even when I&#039;ve ignored Him. No matter where I (or you) have been, God still loves us and wants to grow us -- and that just totally blows my mind!</description>
