I wish I could go back.
I wish I could go back.
ANONYMOUS INBOX
Five minutes cost me seven years of my life because I made a permanent decision based on a temporary emotion.
1 Minute:
I felt disrespected.
3 Minutes:
A fight broke out in a nightclub.
1 Minute:
A shooting.
The consequences:
5½ years in prison.
1½ years on parole.
I missed my son’s birth and his first five birthdays.
I missed my daughter’s birthdays from ages 3 through 8.
Over $4,000 in legal costs.
Countless opportunities, memories, and precious time with my family that I can never get back.
One emotional decision that took only five minutes to make ended up taking seven years of my freedom and changed my family’s life forever.
If I could go back, I would walk away.
Please learn from my mistake. Never make permanent decisions based on temporary emotions. The trade-off is almost never worth it.
