What would happen if you didn't do a certain thing? What would have changed because of that decision? I think about that all the time. If I didn't move to the house I grew up in then I would have never met my incredible group of friends that I've had for 13 years nor would I be dating the girl of my dreams. If I didn't go to Germany then I probably would have never discovered my passion for traveling. I knew some one who was supposed to be on one of the planes that crashed into the World Trade Center but had her flight changed. Wow. It's funny (and always life-changing) how things turn out.
I am in one of those situations right now. A real big one in fact that is ultimately screwing me over. I don't want to go into details about it because, well, its a bit personal to me but all in all: I wouldn't be in the situation that I am now if I didn't forget my phone that one day. If I didn't realize that I forgot my phone then drive back to my apartment to get it. If I didn't see my phone laying on my bed as soon as I opened my door and by fate and perfect timing I was receiving a call that I should have never picked up.
But I did pick up the phone and today I wish I hadn't.
