Another way to look at burned bridges

Comments on yesterday's post about burning bridges have led me to look at the topic again.


Let's face it - we've all burned bridges here and there -

Sometimes, we regret it later. Fortunately, with some careful ... reconstruction, you can actually rebuild a lot of bridges! So if you have bad feelings about a bridge you burned, you might want to try rebuilding!

But other times, bridges are better left burned -


Bad romantic relationships spring to mind: don't go back! If it was wrong the first time, it's more than likely not going to suddenly be right. At least, not in the long run.

This seems appropriate right now:

 And other interpersonal relationships are often better left behind - haters, users, negative people that bring you down...and I could go on and on.

Learn from the situation, and move forward, with the light from your burning bridges shining brightly!



Don't get me wrong - I am not advocating you go around burning bridges left and right. Approach all your bridges with careful thought, logic, and sensitivity before you make the decision to cross!  But if you've burned a bridge, you have 3 choices:
  • repair the damage
  • wallow in regret
  • move forward with your life

The choice is yours!
