today as i walked on broadway north of houston, i passed by a little boy with reddish brown hair crying as he held out his hands. his two lime green toy cars were on the ground, and it seemed like he had just gotten up after a fall. his dad with the same exact hair color was smiling at him as he consoled him. i felt like i witnessed a moment that they might forget, but it was a really great moment. a dad who obviously loves his kid? we need more people like that. sigh: remember when those days? being young meant having an endless world of possibilities at your scratched up hands. like a differentiated cell, it just gets harder and harder to see options as you get older (sorry for the analogy, i've been at a radiation biology conference all day... and will continue to be attend one until saturday - amazing and interesting topics though!)
i also just watched grey's anatomy season finale. wow. those were the two most intense hours i've been through for a while. i was on the elliptical peddling out my anxiety. i think i might have ran up the wall if i hadn't been busy working out. life is so fleeting... and so out of our hands. we can plan to make the decisions we want to make, but what if something happens before we are able to? like percy who was in love with reed but never did anything about it? today, it became too late. that was tragic. i've taken my fair deal of risks... granted they are always too late and done knowingly without the chance of good outcomes. i just need to work on doing something when there is still hope, when there is still something i can do for an outcome i want. maybe once i make a choice to do something that is somewhat binding, i panic at the possibility of being stuck, like a differentiated cell haha. seriously, i can think of one thing i could do, but i feel myself hesitant.
to wait or not to wait...
