We're six months into the year now, and I'm feeling the need for a change, both the big and small kind.
It's been a funny week, this one, and it's got me thinking about all kinds of things. It's been one of those where I keep coming back to a lot of the regrets I have about... Well, lots of things. I can't go back and change any of them, I know, so all I can do is wallow and feel sorry for myself. But, I'm coming to the conclusion that I've learned pretty much everything I'm going to from the mistakes that led to them in the first place, and that I don't need to keep those regrets around any more, so it's time to let them go.
But the more I turn that over in my head, the more I realise it's time to let some other things go, too. I've been clinging on to hopes and aspirations for a while, determined to will them into existence, even though everything is telling me that it won't happen. So, it's time to let those go, too, and start thinking more realistically about the future and what it might hold.
So, over the last half of this year, it's going to be about trying to put that into practice, and laying groundwork for...something new, maybe.
