what's on the other path?

" we don't know the other road, the one we didn't take, or where it leads"

but we're curious. we ask ourselves, if it is too late to turnaround and walk back, take the other path.
but is it possible?
can we neglect our responsibilities?
can we not care about how the people around us think?
these people who love and care about us.

as the saying goes, "the grass is greener on the other side".
is it a fact that human are never satisfied? we tend to look at our friends, our colleagues, our neighbours, anyone around us. we think they live a better life than us. we are inclined to compare ourselves with people whom we assume are better than us. and we silently hope that we have the same or better.
maybe some of us, a minority, do compare ourselves with the poor and less fortunate people, and then consider ourselves more fortunate. or is this merely self-consolation?

bold confession
i'm a selfish bitch. i want better. yet i'm afraid that better might not be good enough for me after a while. or better might not be as good as good. i'm afraid that i might look back and regret, thinking that good, is good enough. that i was wrong for wanting better.
and then, it's TOO LATE!
