    There's a very simple answer to this in my case. I have or had many chances to change my life, but I guess I chose not to for some reason that I find very real. Mental illness and PTSD are funny. It makes you believe that there are very real things that are likely to stop you and/or hurt you. The thing is that those things don't exist. Try telling that to the person suffering from it.

    That would have been Wednesday.  I had the opportunity to change the empty toilet paper roll, but at the time I didn't want to be hassled by it, so I just shrugged it off. Pfft!  I mean, no big deal, right? 
     
    Lesson 1 - Always have a spare roll of TP in the bathroom. 
    Lesson 2 - Never ask a cat to bring you a roll of toilet paper. 
    Lesson 3 - Shredded toilet paper will clog a vacuum..... no matter how small the pieces are.
    Lesson 4 - Despite what the manual says, the section of pipe behind the dustbin on a Shark vacuum is NOT accessible for clog removal
    Lesson 5 - Always unplug a vacuum before attempting to remove a clog with a hanger.
    Lesson 6 - If you have tho opportunity to change the TP roll, don't put it off ... change it!
    Lesson 7 - Cats suck! (unlike your $200 vacuum)

    I have had plenty of opportunity to change my better half over the 32 years we've been together. I don't want to.

    Howard Jones'  "In the Running" album - -

    I could have changed it to another artist but I instead put the entire album on "repeat."

    He never disappoints me and I guess I wanted to stay with him instead.

    There is a season for everything.  Sometimes the conditions and people in your life need to be right.  Change affects everyone around you and everyone around you can effect change.....or not.

      Thank you. 

      Oh, by the way, the last time you had an opportunity to change something but chose not to, what was the thing and why didn’t you change it?

    I have gum stuck on the bottom of my shoe.  I chose not to scrape it off because I like gum on the bottom of my shoe.
