Missed Chance

I had an unusual dilemma today. An opportunity came up to do something I love but the circumstances were not right. While that can be a no brainer when it comes time write about, the mental wrestling match has been in full swing for the last day it has been on the table. Ultimately, I opted for passing on the chance as it conflicted with other obligations and feel good about it. What I find odd is the lingering, childish regret. Missing a chance is a fear I have never fully been able to reconcile with rationale or any other tool. It seems there is still a part of my thinking that continues to believe everything is now or never. I know that is not the case and it takes very little stock keeping of where my life is at to realize I am living in yesterday's "never."
