In hindsight I realize that that review was very vicious. But it was very true to how I was feeling.
There is a saying I heard recently, “Hindsight is 20/20” and I think that’s pretty spot on. It’s the idea that with hindsight you have total clarity and can see everything. Which is pretty unfair to yourself because then you see all the possible, or most, outcomes of the situation and what ended up happening with those actions. So it is a bit unfair, because we never have 20/20 vision in these situations. What we have, is what we got.
That’s kind of what I have now when I think about how I tripped and fell yesterday. I fell flat on my face after tripping on my shoe lace which was only untied because it was giving me a cut on my foot. So yes in hindsight, I should have seen it was untied sooner and stopped to do it, even though I was running late.
Instead I ended up falling flat on the ground, badly bruising one knee, both my palms, and hurting my elbow muscle.
So yes, Hindsight is 20/20.
