o/~ one pill makes you larger, and one pill makes you small... o/~

[kuangning]

There's a slim strip of consciousness that lies in the no-man's-land between daydreams and deeper fantasies. It's the place in your mind that twists reality slightly and hands it back to you with the edges obscured and the colours brightened, running into each other and making your eyes ache to look at them.

It's the space in which what might have been comes clear, and the afterimages of our otherselves walking away from us down other roads hover at the edges of our sight. That brand of wistfulness seems to have caught and held some of the folks on my friends list lately, and I am an edgy, restless, inquisitive Cairsten tonight.

So tell me your might have been. Tell me about the road you could have walked, the one you did walk, and the differences between the two. Tell me about the time you had to choose, and how it changed you. Tell me what you gained from it, what you lost. And then... tell me if you think it was worth it.

a couple of thing spring to mind, first one, I decided to move to be with the person who eventually became my husband, I nearly didn't go.

second decision, my husband talked me into having a 2nd child, i didnt really want to, but he really wanted one.

third... if Dan had decided to stick around.

as for how things would have turned out, well I dunno..

better, worse... dfferent.
