Rumination
Karan posed me a question today which ive often thought of.
"Do i regret coming to TJ?"
Id like to think that my answer varies at different stages of my TJ life.
In the first half of last year? Id say i was a teensy-weensy bit depressed with my final school choice. Im not one for change, and i certainly didnt enjoy leaving behind my friends/classmates in CJ.
Towards the end of last year though, these dreaded feelings were gradually replaced by warmth and camaraderie. And i felt that i made the right choice.
I cant really say much about this year though. Ive learnt a lot and experienced many, dare i say, life-defining scenarios. Its been one heck of a ride so far. Im not really sure if im all that settled. Regret might be too extreme a word to be using, while happily-ever-after just doesnt cut it either. Indifference perhaps?
A fitting quote, i reckon.
"Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things we did not do that is inconsolable." — Sydney J. Harris
