Anti-climax

Written by Sean on Friday, October 7, 2005

Here I am, getting older and older. I’ve been wanting/needing this “thing” for over 30 years. It’s a long time to be on the edge and want or need something. A very long time. And what if when I get it, it turns out to be anti-climactic?

So often, when you build up your expectations for so long, things are good for a while, and then you kinda go “ooomf”, and you think “what was all the fuss about?”. As some people point out, the journey is as important as the destination.

But of course, becoming a para would not be the destination, it’s just part of the journey. Yet, it certainly is what would be considered a milestone, and a great big one at that!

So, what if… What if I do get this SCI I so desperately need, and so dearly want, and end up being disappointed? Not unhappy because of it, but just kinda going “Isn’t there more to this?”.

Time can only tell…
