Day 8

I wish for better days
The ones that passed
and the ones to come
Any day but today.

Today brings up memories
Why offer the option to go back to a day like today?

To fix the cause of the problem of course. 

But would I be the same?

The true question is not, would I be the same.

The question should be, would I be better?

There is nothing to fix if things would get worse.

Think about the person you became
The friends you have made.

Would they be here if you were different?

Would your life be better without them?

I can honestly say, my life would be worse.

I lost my mother almost 3 years ago. I think about how often I would change that day, the things I did. I lost my best friend and it still hurts.

I will never forget the people who were there for me during that period, and the time after when I was in a very bad spot.

I lost my best friend, but I gained many more.

Many who I would never know if not for the situation life had set before me on that day. Many who have made me into the much better person I am now.
