Talking of lost opportunities, to me it's one that most times hit me real hard. Thinking about it now, I realized I've had a few number of opportunities that I've lost due to one thing or the other. Talk of opportunities I've had with some people I've got to meet and might never meet again, talk of the ones I've had at work, talk of both the big and small ones.
They are just too much to talk about, and they definitely leave a mark. But then, there's this one that still seems to hit me, even though it might not look it to you, but it is to me. It was something I wasn't expecting at all. I had planned my life so well, calculated things and all, I had anticipated that I will be down with most of my things very early in life, and it was going like that, not until life came and hit me hard. I couldn't do all of those things I had planned out, I was stagnant, my life was on a pause and every other thing around me moved on.
And I couldn't help but blame myself while also giving myself some simple but hard to answer questions, questions like... "What if I had started earlier?" *"What if my parents are in a better position to handle things? "What if this never happened and I didn't get to experience delay?".... That and many more were questions I asked myself and to me, it felt like a lost opportunity, because it feels like life skipped me to choose others.
But then, even though there are chances I lost, I'm glad I didn't lose my value. I kept doing few things to get myself back on track, I can't stay at a position for long, I can't wallow in it and keep saying I'm just unlucky."
We've lost some opportunities, accepted. But the truth is, it's not as if we really lost it, we Just lost the version of life we expected, like the version of life we would have been if we had make good use of the opportunity. Still, there's still another version waiting, it may not look so big, or the opportunity we see might not be that big, but it can still carry the version we want, it might at the end of the day lead us to purpose.
A lost opportunity isn't the end of the world, and it shouldn't be the end of our story, yes it is painful but we shouldn't stay back or feel dejected too much, we need to step up and see it as a beginning of another and a better one we did not see coming.
