I was walking through the UCSD campus today, and saw signs all over for something I never experienced in life. And it brought me to thinking about regret. There are people that tend to hold onto regret, and people who would rather forget. I am a for- getter. But, I was motivated today to think about regret. There are two things in life I regret.
1. Not spending more time with my grandma before she passed away, knowing that she was just down the street at an old folks home. I'm sure there were stories beyond stories, I could have listened too. I'm sure my simply daily pleasures would have brought a smile to her face, on the days where she was left alone, in a room filled with like being, who couldn't remember the two hours prior.
2. Not every studying abroad in college, or taking time off after to go explore the world.
It's not too late, but it's also not reality right now. Although i often, often, think about how I would like that to be my reality, just for a year.
The road less traveled intrigues me. It's funny, because at first glance it's not what I seem, not how I think i'm perceived. But, it's much of my soul.
Something about the unique, the souls that aren't the norm, attracts me much. Dare I admit. Especially with men, and the circle of friends I am trying to re-create.
Cheers.
