Write about a time when you didn’t take action but wish you had. What would you do differently?

Looking back, surely there was a moment I could have taken action, which could have been a crucial turning point in my life. Like an open window, you can choose to jump through or not, to have a glimpse of another world.

For example, six months before finishing my bachelor’s degree at the University of Athens, a professor from the department asked if I would like to pursue my master’s degree in Germany; he could help me find a suitable University there. But I didn’t want to leave Greece then, so I declined.

When I think about it now, considering how my life has evolved, I should have grabbed that chance; things would have been much better. I’m sure I missed many meaningful experiences and knowledge that could have helped me. I’m not afraid I wouldn’t have started writing, because I’m convinced writing was meant for me; it’s written in my Vedic birth chart.

However, I would do it differently and take that opportunity to do a Master’s in Germany. As mentioned above, if something is meant to happen, it will happen. However, it looks like studying in Germany wasn’t meant for me.
