Comment on As an immigrant I wonder a lot about the alternate timeline where I never migrated... I wonder if kids who got adopted feel a similar way... the "what if I got different parents" timeline...

“Fun” fact: literally everything that happens to you and all the little things you do every day are potentially just as life-changing.

You could go to one supermarket instead of another and meet your future life partner there.
Or come home 5 minutes early and catch the short circuit in time that would have burnt down your home with all your belongings.
Or cross the street here instead of there and get run over by a drunk driver.

Life is unpredictable, and it’s generally healthier to look to the future instead of the past.
