Where Did I Go Wrong?

This is a question that issues forth from human lips -
Probably with more regularity than the leaky faucet drips.
And very likely, for as many reasons as the leaky drips.
The seen and the unseen operate behind life's unseen scenes as a momentary blip.

When we make that first unwise decision, it never appears as a deliberate
Choice to bring so many negative connotations, we'd like to eliminate.
Not being able to visualize how each day's decision will culminate.
We can only cope with the results after the fact - usually too late.

Being vulnerable humans, we truly try, but even so, mistakes are made
And it is not always a real wise or even trade.
We arrived at each road marker - one mile at a time -
Making the wisest choice at each choice offered! That is no crime!
