Late or Early?

Changes occur in the surroundings, in people, be it now or later; hence, it has never been too late to change but it will always be too early to judge a person, an incident or the future according to what we’ve seen. Perhaps some may say, what is done is done, a fact which can never be changed. It is indeed. However, the changes we now refer to are not equivalent to changing the past, but the future. Damage can never be removed, but it fades when we give it the permission to. So why hold on to the painful memories when we know changes can be made in the future, in our future? We don’t just sit there and feel miserable for life when we make mistakes; we make a change so that the history does not repeat itself. On the other hand, we do not conclude an ending when we have a choice to make, when there are the external factors which may causes variation, when it is too early to come to an end. We mold the future of our own, we predict the unpredictable and we hypnotize our very own thoughts, just so we think changes will not occur, as we are too afraid to face the reality, as we feel that changes are not reliable, as our sense of security is challenged; and at the very end of the day, we find ourselves trapped in between. It is hard to not come to a conclusion of our own but it brings no harm to go with the flow once in a while when we cannot move on further.
