Hindsight is 20/20

When you use this phrase twice in one day.. you know something is definately wrong!
taken from www.phrases.org.uk,
20-20, more often written 20/20, is the standard for clear vision. When an eye doctor measures eyesight, a reading of 20/20 represents clarity. Hindsight, looking back on what has already happened, allows us to see clearly the course of action we should have taken, but perhaps didn’t. So … if you nag me with what I should have done yesterday, I will gently remind you that your hindsight is 20/20, but where was all this good advice when I needed it?
I think that sums it up quite nice…..
Frankly, ‘Hindsight’ reminds me of the expression of “eyes at the back of your HINDs (read BUTT)”…heheh…
It’s funny how I was just thinking about the same thing before reading your post….about how things happen and at that exact point we dont see things as a part of a bigger game plan but later on we see the bigger picture and know the answers to why what when and how.
umar: someone had to think that way…. am sorry its u though! and here i thought…. LoLz
hera: excatly! its the later which eats at u :p
