When the mind doesn't have enough outside distraction it looks for gaps. It looks for could've and should've instead of focusing on what we have.
This is very human.
We can get lost in lament sometimes especially as we age because not everything in life worked according to plan. Some hopes and dreams were dashed without knowing whether they would have worked out in the end.
Life is meant to challenge us and many things don't last. Friendships and marriages sometimes dissolve and we later realize that they brought us value in learning something about ourselves.
They forced us to face preconceived ideas about who we thought we were or were supposed to be.
