Pondering

Lately I've been wondering how I ended up at the juncture in my life. I know, I know... all my decisions up until this point put me here but I am pondering why I made those decisions. I seem to have just made decisions and then pushed on to the next section of my life without really analyzing why I made those decisions. There were some circumstances that warranted quick decisions (not really an excuse for bad decisions). I know people say you shouldn't dwell on the past and just live in the present but... I think I need to review the past before I make more mistakes.
