Roads Less Traveled…

 

  Today I find myself dwelling on ancient thoughts, pondering how life might’ve been had I possessed the courage to pursue it.  Would I have still found Camille?  Would I be living a lie?  Would I be happy?

It’s funny how something as simple as a song on the radio or an image on TV can send a flood of memories and feelings rushing back to you.  I’m so thankful for my life and all those who are in it…but life is so fragile with each comment, decision, or reaction forming the very fabric of our future selves.  How easily would it have been for my life to be completely different.  I suppose the real miracle is that one chance encounter followed by a dozen more gave me the life I now enjoy.

  A lot of people I know would say to me, “Just let the past be in the past.”  …but if we truly did that then we would have no real appreciation of the present we are living.

  I hold no regrets, only brilliant flashes of a life that could have been.
