Ah, you sound like another friend I was concerned about.  She came to the conclusion that you have to live for today and let yesterday stay there.  Learn lessons from it but leave it behind.  
Sometimes I feel the fear of uncertainty                                                                                       stinging clear.                                                                                                                And I can't help but ask myself                                                                                     how much I'll let the fear                                                                                                 take the wheel and steer.                                                                                                    It's driven me before,                                                                                                     and it seems to have a vague,                                                                                                  haunting mass appeal.                                                                                                        But lately                                                                                                                               I am beginning to find that                                                                                                 I should be the one behind the wheel.                                                                     Whatever tomorrow brings,                                                                                             I'll be there with open arms and open eyes.                                                                      So if I decide to waiver my chance                                                                                   to be one of the hive                                                                                                         will I choose water over wine                                                                                        and hold my own and drive?                                                                                               It's driven me before                                                                                                      and it seems to be the way                                                                                                that everyone else gets around.                                                                                       But lately I'm beginning to find                                                                                      that when I drive myself my light is found.                                                                         So whatever tomorrow brings,                                                                                        I'll be there with open arms and open eyes. Yeh.                                                               Would you kill the Queen to crush the hive?                                                                 Would you choose water over wine....                                                                             hold the wheel and drive?
