Well, that's one of the choices available - but grudges are terribly
consumptive and life is too short and precious to spend on resentment
that can't change past events. Khalil Gibran said it really well when
he wrote: "The moving finger writes and having writ moves on..."


Except that Omar Kayham wrote about the moving finger......"nor all you
piety nor wit shall call it back to cancel half a line, nor all your
tears wash out a word of it."

Kalil Gibran wrote some moving words but those were not his. He was
several hundred years later.
