Thinking about time…
This morning was different, going through my daily routine I actually sat down to have my usual cup of coffee, huge cup of light roast with yummy cream. We’re usually so busy through the day that we, I, rarely have much time to play, think, read or even to unwind. No matter how hard I try I usually end up walking around the house in the mornings with my coffee in my hand and end up leaving half of it in the bathroom, top of the TV or even in my closet. Of course, the morning is not the ideal moment to unwind but today I was suddenly hit by time. In the past couple of days I have re-connected with someone I care for very much and realized that we had not spoken for more than over a year… a year. I do admit that I’m responsible for the distance and the lack of communication but it’s just a part of life, the things we do, the decisions we make. So as I sat down this morning with a pensive mind, I suddenly began to wish that I could go back in time, not only for a week or two, years would be nice… Although I’ve never had any regrets in the decisions I’ve made, there are a few things that I wish I could have done differently. I think it’s one of the worst feelings, the fact that we can’t go back and change things about our past. There’s always something else we would have done, something we should have said, a place we should have seen, people we had to seek, conversations we should have had, kisses that should have happened… feelings that had to be expressed and many “I’m sorry”. So maybe this re-connecting is not so bad, it’s the closest thing to being able to rewind and change things, it’s an opportunity to think things over, the chance to say you’re sorry, smile and move on…
