I've been worrying of late that I am living my life in a state of 'what if.' I am worried I'm saying yes to dates with men I'm unsure of, working at a job when maybe it's not worth it, kissing people when I really shouldn't because it doesn't mean a thing.
But why not?
I likened my latest date to not leaving a stone left unturned, and I couldn't figure out why I would do that. Why would I go on another date with a man I turned down three years ago?
It's because of the 'what if' factor. I need to get it out of my system. I need to have no doubts. I need to know. I need to take chances and maybe waste some time eating sushi with a man who turns out isn't right. Most of them aren't.
The Dane drove me nuts and now it's turning into a friendship but if I hadn't tried, I would have wondered. But now I know and I don't have to wonder what might have happened if I'd just taken a chance.
What is that, seizing the day?
