Random, tiny hot-spring, in the Geysir area, Iceland. . If you died tomorrow, would you have lived the life you wanted? Would you be able to say "even though it was a short stay, I lived it to the full. I have no regrets because I did, and experienced a lot of what i wished for." Or would you be full of regrets because you didn't get to do the things you wanted to do in time? . Time. Something which is taken for granted yet is what makes our life. We use time as an excuse for so many reasons. But is the excuse worth? A lot of us plan to do things but always bring up the excuse of not being the right time. But, how is it not? We need to make time, for the things we want to do. Is the excuse worth the regret that comes later on, of having missed out on the things we wanted to experience? . Yesterday an old friend of mine died, and although we weren't close, it was still a major shock. She was young, my age, and she loved adventures. She was gone too soon, too young, had her whole life ahead of her. Her death got me thinking. I'm a person who tries to live life to the full, with no regrets, so I frequently spend analyzing my life. Yet, analyzing it under shock is so different, you see it from a whole new perspective. . Till now I have managed to do a lot of the things I wanted to do, experience places I wanted, made dreams, and childhood dreams, come true. I'm happy with the life I've lived, but at the same time I realised how much time I've wasted surrounding myself with the wrong people. Loving the wrong people. Although I regret, I'm still thankful for coming to realisation about who was good in my life, and who wasn't. . So, if I had to die tomorrow, what would I say? It's a difficult question to answer because I instantly think of leaving my family (inc my dog) behind, the pain they would go through, and my dog thinking I've abandoned him. And honestly, I can't bare the thought. But if i had to 'ignore' that part, If I had to die tomorrow, I'd be 'satisfied' with the journey of my life. . . . #iceland #travel #hotspring #geyser #geysir #lupine #alaskanlupine #traveller #adventure #mountain #nature #grass #flowers #wanderlust #loss #trees #hill #eldarath
