Looking Back

Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock. That's the sound an old clock makes as time passes by; repetitive ticking followed by an even fainter tocking. Maybe you're at your job watching the clock but with every tick, the tock manages to be an eternity later. Or maybe you are hanging out with your best friend and suddenly it feels like the ticks and tocks went by so quickly. However you may experience or perceive time, it affects are life the exact same way - time makes you feel older. As you start to have the sensation of time passing by a couple thoughts may be on your mind: Did I pick the right path? Do I have any regrets?

Whenever I start to think about choosing my correct path in life I always get stopped at the idea of the "butterfly effect." This is an effect described as the possibility of a small decision at the time having an enormous impact to your future life. While the name "butterfly effect" has such a gracious name, thinking about it makes me want to hurl. Take a moment and imagine what it would be like for your parents living life before they met each other. I know it's very strange to think about.To you, you just lived - end of story. For your parents on the other hand, they most likely had thousands of decisions leading up to the moment of starting a family together.
