Regrets in Retrospect

It’s the little things in life that I regret- the things that mean both a lot and a little at the same time. Big things set your life on a whole new vector. The little things fine-tune the direction.

It was two years ago, and we had a couple of dates. I wasn’t anything worthy of consideration as serious, or even slightly committed. It was however, fun. She told me she was moving well before she told me she was interested. Fortunately, a part of myself told me to live for the moment, and I did. I don’t regret that. I didn’t regret the kiss or our last spoken words then, and I don’t regret them now, but I do wish they were better. It was almost as if I would be seeing her later in the week.

Perhaps it’s better that it ended that way. Formal endings, finality, imply major significance of the events. Finality is for major turning points, but even the slightest change can cause great shifts given enough time…

Y’know, I only have a problem with it now. I think that means I did a good thing. It was ever so small a change, and most important of all, it was fun.
