Life is a strange thing, like riding in canoe with no paddle. You travel down stream hit a few rapids, swirls the odd rock or two but! You can never paddle back upstream, you can never change things.
Some people back at their action or those of others and wish they could change the outcome, regret their own actions and get stuck mulling of past events.
However, life moves forward, regardless. What has been said can not be unsaid, what has been done can not be undone. That is how life works. However sometimes life gives you choice you can carry your same path or turn left, start a fresh, jump in blind and run with it.
I have in my journey through life have always put other people first always tried to do the right thing at the expanse of my own happiness, wellness, dreams and true self.
Life has presented me with a left turn. If I take it, I take for purely selfish reasons. Knowing in my heart that bridges will be burnt, friendships lost and hearts broken. If I don't then a chance of a life I've dreamt of for so very long will be lost.
I have done everything to dissuade this left turn. Yet, it still calls me, still shines brightly and I'm finding it harder to resist it. Suddenly, feelings, emotions that I thought I had buried deep are sudden banging on the door, shouting to heard, wanting to be released. Suddenly the rain feels good again, my heart beats a little faster, a spring in my step and my soul soars at the thought of this left turn.
Suddenly doing the right thing doesn't appeal anymore, not that it ever did truly. Being the person I'm expected to be or the person I want to be.
Life is a strange thing...............
