I'm already forgetting where exactly I saw this because it was the first thing in the morning, but your piece reminded me of the analogy. They said something to the effect of: "There's a reason reer view mirrors are so small and windshields so large. What's behind us is no longer important."
I still spend a fair amount of time caught up in things I can't change, but meditation definitely makes it easier to accept those things that are out of my control and be present. Another profound piece, Paddy. Thanks for submitting!
