Day 23: Something you always think “what if…” about.
I don’t try to dwell in the past always wondering “what if…” It’ll eat you alive if you keep thinking those things. When things have already happened, just let it go and do something about it in the future. But I do sometimes ask myself why do those things happen. They say things happen for a reason but most of the time we are too blind to see right away what that reason was. I’ve learned to just give it time. Give time some time. But it is fun for me to sometimes think what if my life were different. Not that I want to change some things that happened to me, I just want to hypothesize what my life would be if some things were different.
- What if I was born different racially?
- What if I had a sister?
- What if we were a little wealthy? Would I have a different set of morals?
- What if we won the lotto?
I don’t think about these things all the time, but once in a while, it’s nice to exercise your mind. Sometimes, I surprise myself when I connect all the dots. What’s interesting is that when I think about these things, I try to keep the rest like what it is now.
My advice: Never think “what if” about a boy/girl. Maybe not never, but don’t wonder about it too much. If anything, when relationships end, take it as a blessing. It’s life teaching you a lesson.
