Men Who Wish to Drown by Elizabeth Fama

3.0

I have led a life that most men envy. I achieved health and wealth almost without effort. But as a young man the future was unknown and there were two paths before me. In my nineteenth year I tasted the nectar of truly living, and I might have leapt over the chasm of the ordinary into the ravishment of an ecstatic extraordinary, but I turned away from it.

A short story about reflection and the regret of not taking a risk. It resonated with me.
