The year 2020 was 20 years ago

The year 2020 was 20 years ago

When I remembered that 2020 was 20 years ago...

I thought about the things I said I'd start but never did

I thought about the podcast I said I’d record with my friends

I thought about the career change that I never dared to take

I thought about the life I could have lived

The version of me who could have thrived

If only I've done all the things

That I had said to myself

...

Wait:

It’s still 2024

And I still have 20 more years to chase my dream

There’s plenty of time

I can still do it now

It's not too late

It's only been 4years since 2020

There are 16 more years to go to chase my dreams

But...

I'm too busy now

I don't have enough time

I'm afraid I will fail

And I don't want to look stupid

What would people say about me?

I guess...

I'll do it later.
