24.

Recent events have caused me to reflect on my own life, my choices, my attitude toward things. I can't help but feeling that if I maybe put a little more effort in different directions that I would be happier and, overall, have more time. Procrastination is an evil thing, sometimes in more ways and more severely than one can even begin to contemplate. I've often doubted some of my views; very few people share many of them so it's only a natural reaction. Now, however, I feel even more strongly about them than I did before because after seeing real life examples I know that what I have done and what I will do is the right thing. I've taken the more difficult path when I could have just as easily taken the easy one, and it may have hurt someone at the moment. But wounds heal back stronger and I've woken up to find that the difficult decisions I've made (even if they seemed wrong at the time) and the tears I shed were not for no reason and as the picture develops, I can be confident that the image that appears is better than the one I was looking at before the flash went off.
