Four years ago, I came to a point in my life where I had to choose one path or another. The paths were ever getting divergent and I could no longer straddle the two sides. Consequences of choosing one met abandoning another. Well, I made the choice then and it has deeply impacted my experiences over the four years since that decision.
Now, another such "branching point" has come upon me. Again it involves having to choose one path or another - this time, though, instead of involving two fresh paths, it involves whether to continue on the path that I chose four years ago or to go on a different path. Three days ago I decided to branch off from what I had chosen four years ago. Why? There are many reasons why - yes, it's multifactorial... But I feel at peace with closing this particular chapter in my life and moving on. I can't say I put hours of prayer into this but definitely a lot of deliberation and weighing in of different aspects.
Do I regret taking that road four years ago, only to divert from it now? Can't say I do, because those four years were some great times. While a part of me still wonders the "what if's", I am glad I made the decision then, and I hope to be glad of this decision in years to come.
