Taking Risks

Feeling fairly miserable at the moment, due to post-physical therapy and some kind of random stomach bug I've been spontaneously struck with. It is NOT fun. >.< I'm medicating myself with Samurai fluff and BatFamily Fluff, because it cheers me up when I feel crappy.

On another note, I've been feeling kind of introspective since yesterday. Not depressed or anything; just ... thinking about roads not taken, I suppose.

Today I was asked a question that kind of touched on a similar topic, and I decided I wanted to keep what I'd ended up saying. Maybe it's because I'm still feeling introspective, but it feels like something I should keep in mind.

But, on a more philosophical note, I've become who I am now because I made that decision. A lot of bad things have happened because of it, but so did a lot of good things. And I'm stronger than I was before, in a lot of ways.

For me, it was the right choice in the end, I think. Because I've learned and experienced a lot. I can't say I would go back and do it again, but at the same time, I don't completely regret it.

I guess it boils down to deciding if you're willing to take a chance on something else. It won't necessarily be better, but you never know what you can miss out on if you don't take that risk.

I swear I was coming to DW to post almost exactly this sentiment. o.O GIVE ME BACK MY BRAIN.

(Also, my POS phone decided that sending text messages is a thing it doesn't do anymore, so... if I don't answer, that's why. :/ I can still receive them, though.)
