Blast from the past

It's funny how your past catches up with you. I discovered today a blog that I kept an indeterminate amount of time ago, and it was something of an eye-opener. I'd completely forgotten about it and it was only when I was clearing out some old emails this evening that I saw that it existed.

And it is completely embarrassing. To discover that my mind at the time was completely devoted to one single issue wasn't so much of a shock (it wasn't THAT long ago), but to devote so many words to it was. I don't know how many ways there are of saying a single thing, but I must have broken the record over that two months (which, if I'm honest, wasn't a very exciting time of my life). Loosely, each post was like
"blah blah blah worry blah blah blah ask God to help me make the right decision". I'm glad it had a readership of no more than one or two (I only wrote it at the behest of my cousin who stopped caring about two posts in. I don't blame her). I wish I could go back in time and give myself a good slap on the face, but it gave me a chance to reflect and see if much had changed since then.

I won't go into much detail about it, but I'm pleased to say I am handling it a lot better in its current state than I was then. I guess you experience things over time that help you deal with later problems in life and perhaps time is, ultimately, the best thing for some issues. I want to write more about the role of time in the universe but I think I should go to bed.
