relive the past or live the future
This is actually a reply to a blog and I figured it would be a little too long for something labelled "comments" which are usually short and sweet. :) Not that this won't be. Well.... not that short anyway. :P Anyhow, before I go more in circles, we (I) shall retort...
Bear in mind that this is really just my opinion and it could differ per individual. To relive the past or live the future?
I don't think we can really "re-live" our past. We can get back into the rhythm of how things use to be but because of what we've gone through, in this case, I'd call it growing up, ;) things are bound to be a little different. It could be just the little things, how you see the world, how you feel about issues, about pancakes :P you know, that sorta stuff.
A void can always be filled. Just don't expect it to fit perfectly as it used to. Don't get me wrong... if it does, then great... but I'm just bearing in mind the role you've just independently built for yourself. You asked how that would be like, would the two worlds merge? Well, that can only truly be answered when you're back here and actually going through it. We can only imagine what it would be like but nothing beats being there.
But whatever it is, do not be afraid of the future. Live for the future. Home is where your heart is... and now your mind is prepared to combine your new found role with the old... just don't think about it so much. You'll be fine.
The roles that you play may or may not have altered. It largely depends on what you'd have expected to stay the same. Those who have known and liked you, will always like you. They will still be there. That's not gonna change. Those who are worth it will accept you for who you are, no matter how much you think you've changed.
One thing hasn't changed.... you still care about what others think. :P Seek approval from those you hold dear. Take anyone else's comments as the sharing of thoughts. Listen but don't always take it to heart.
Come back and live your future. There are no mistakes in tomorrow, just possibilities. :)
