In my weak moments, I now mull more over and regret the things that have befallen me, rather than the mistakes I have made.
Maybe I’m getting better at shifting the blame, or hopefully, I’m getting better at accepting myself.
If I ever want to mark this off as complete, I guess I’ve gotta say the time is now.
I guess the past six months has forced this realization on me, and when I made this goal I guess I believe that finally believing in this would bring only joy. But good things can be ripped away as easily as the bad. Probably even easier.
But we soldier on.
