What a journey this internship has been. It has pushed me to be more empathetic, be less reactive, and continued to make me more humble. But with each gain, did I lose something? Perhaps now I smile less, am more cynical, and am slightly more blatant. I have one more year of experience, one more year of laughs and tears, and one more year of wonderful friendships with new memories made.
But from that I tend to reflect on what else I could have done with that time. What if my journey had diverged else where? What if I had made other decisions? What if I wasn't where I am? What if I wasn't who I am doing what I am? All hypothetical. A mind game of looking back into the past. A reflection. The ripples have already dispersed.
I suppose this meditation is not on what was but where I am now. A reminder to come back to the present. A reminder to not live in the yesterday. To embrace the today and all that it brings.
