Well, which one would you chose?
For me I'll be honest I'm not sure. There are a couple I would consider.
- the first is purely self gratifying - it was this year, the day after a good friend's birthday and we were travelling from Bujumbura to the orphanage together after an enjoyable weekend off (in seperate places). We were on the slowest bus I've ever been on and to top things off it broke down en route. So we were on a journey that should take about 2 hours and ours took almost 5 hours. I was late for teaching in the afternoon and managed to eat a couple of pieces of sweet potato before running down the hill to make up a class as I went along (thank God for action songs!). In the evening I hung out again with the same friend who I travelled with during the day, I gave him the presents I'd made as birthday gifts. We had some amazing conversations that day, some life changing moments, and some I relive all over again almost every day. I miss that guy, more than anyone I met out there I miss him and I would do almost anything to see and talk to him again. To have a day like that again.
- the others are various different days that I wish had turned out differently. I would like to go back and relive them to see if I could make them turn out differently.
Which one is better? reliving the disastous, but still practically perfect day, or reliving a day that turned out badly to try and improve the things I regret.
I'm still in two minds, but what about you?
