The Pain of Not Knowing

The worst thing one can do is not to try, to be aware of what one wants and not give in to it, to spend years in silent hurt wondering if something could have materialized – never knowing. – Jim Rohn

Wonder what could have been, what you could have been.

Or, you can explore those yearnings and find out.

I say you do that.
