We get into the circumstances that we do. But I do know that we can learn from each of them. As I have grown older in my life I have realized this more. And I have also had less and less regrets as I learn to make wiser decisions. But the truth is that life can hurt sometimes. But I am one of those people who believes that everything happens for a reason. Sometimes this reason is because our choices have taken us there, but most of the time it’s because God wanted us to experience something. I have always been a person who regrets some of the things I have done, but now I want to be one of those people who doesn’t have regrets.
Throughout life we are faced with many different circumstances. And for whatever reason we have the possibility of doing one thing or the next. But like I said, I believe that all of this happened for a reason.
I want to move on from my past. I know this is really childish, but it’s what popped into my head: It’s like on the Lion King when Simba gets all sad about his circumstances and mad at himself for being the “cause of his dad’s death.” Even though he wasn’t in the end. Simba couldn’t move on from that pain. I don’t want to be the old Simba. I want to be the Simba that was ready to be king. I want to be ready for the circumstances in the here and now.
I didn’t go down the path I wanted to 3 years ago. And that left me in pain, just like Simba had been. But now I have the chance to live for the moment… God has something else in store. And I’m hoping I can live for that, rather that live in the past and live in the happiness that I once had. True happiness comes when we are in the center of God’s will. I haven’t been for some time, I will freely admit that. It’s time to turn over a new leaf.
