U turn? I dont think so
There are many things in life. Many many things that we miss and that we come across. Sometimes, we fail to realise what just passed and only notice what is so obsolete and useless. Although to each his own, it is so important to do something about it so you wont feel so shocked about how life gets to you. I guess the most cruel thing about life, is, well, is that you cant go back.
No matter what people tell you or how better things get, you can never go back. Its not tantamount to making things better or moving on to have a better life, its bare, bold fact that you cant go back to how things were and keep what you want that has already left. Its just like seeing your own phone drop from your hands. You know its gonna drop, you know its gonna hurt but you cant do a damn thing about it , neither can you revert the situation. Why do you think expressions like, Oh fuck or oh shit come about? its just because you know that something you did cant get you what you want.
I guess im facing a time where i wished i could take the hands of time and make them my own at my pace. The idea of having family around you is an optimum situation in all cases. Heck, even if ur a single man or woman who has taken the vow of celibacy, your family is something thats bound to acknowledge you and bound to be there.
Anyway, going back is something that we all want. I cant imagine how happy things would be if we were keepers of our own time. Time is like a prerequisite in life, just like being born, going to school, working, marriage, and then dying. From the day we open our eyes to this world till the day we close them , these are all prerequisites that we do not own or control, but things that we are bound by, that, without, would mean zero survival.
If you move in a car at a desired speed miss your point and decide to take a u turn, then thats going back.
If you move in a car at a desired speed, miss your point and take another way out to reach your destination, thats moving on to make things better, leaving the past behind. And like i said, that is not tantamount to going back in life. Because you cant.
So whats my point? its not a bad thing to be able to move on and have a better life, but its undeniable that if sometimes you can go back, thatwould be a whole lot better. Sometimes even if you go back, thething you want to keep will eventually go. But with that said, when you know whats leaving and get to go back, wouldn that allow more time? No u turns in life, only alternatives that teach you to cherish day after day which actually hurts us deep down , at times of our life.
