Can We Start Over?
When I think what day I would choose to go back and re-live again, there are two days that tie for first place—both involve the same person and same situation. But as I think about, if I go back to first day of my two choices, then my desired outcome might be welcomed… that settles it!
If I had a DeLorean that was time machine, I would go back to October 2, 2019. So, we could start over again and I could be more up front about my feelings. Because maybe… just maybe… had I not ran from my feelings and instead acknowledged that I was experiencing love at first sight that night, then we would still be friends… better yet, we might even be a couple.
And I wouldn’t be struggling to get over you six years later. I wouldn’t live in a love-torture chamber of my own making.
