It creeps in, sometimes, and sometimes it is with reason at others without. In my case it is not so much dejection and hopelessness it is anger at self for procrastination and for finding excuses to blanket over my shortcomings and bad decisions. Hindsight is terrible unless it is consciously made to work in one's favor by extracting only the learnings and not letting the bitter tastes into one's brain, leave alone the stage where one has to "spit it out". It takes some doing. It's got to.
I don't think of the past. The only thing that matters is the everlasting present. W. Somerset Maugham Ralph Waldo Emerson - "To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."
