remember when we were kids and every time your team made a mistake in a game, you called a do-over? i wish you could do that with real life. every time something happen that i don't like, everytime i do something stupid, and every time i open my big mouth, i wish i could cancel it with a do-over. the thing is, do-overs don't even really cancel out your mistake. sometimes the do-over is everyone's fault. sometimes it's just an accident. regardless, the mistake is still there. the other team is still mad at you for calling a do-over, but they are going to do better next time. you are going to do better. everyone stops, accepts the mistake, and keeps going. there is no shame in a do-over, no having to apologize, or letting the accident stew over night. the best part is that the do-over is a fresh start. what happened is in the past, and you can put your best, or at least better, foot forward.
i wish it was still acceptable to call a do-over.
