What are you waiting for?
Every day we are confronted with minor choices like what to have for lunch, what to watch on TV, what movie to see. Then there are the choices where we take a little more time to think about like which car to drive, what job to take and which neighborhood to live in. But then there are major forks in the road which really make us stop and ponder for a moment. Most times these forks have to do with relationships but not always. There’s that fork in the road, both sides looking equally appealing. How do you know which one to choose? It can be difficult because you know there is one that is better than the other, but from this perspective you just don’t know, they look the same. One side will have an easy road, warm sunshine, sweet smelling flowers and end in a wonderful place with rainbows and children laughing, metaphorically speaking of course. Every ones paradise varies. The other or wrong side starts out looking great and wonderful until you notice that the road starts to get a little rocky and there are less and less flowers. But, you’ve come so far, you don’t want to waste all your time and stop now so you continue down this road thinking maybe this is just a bad spot. This continues until finally you realize that you’ve come to a steep precipice and your only choices are to jump or to make your way back along the horrible rocky road to the fork to take the other side. And you have to hope that, that road is still open once you get there. This spot has crept up on you even though you’ve known it was coming for awhile now and just refused to admit it to yourself. The road just got ever so slowly rocky and you just didn’t realize how bad it was until you got to the precipice. So, you gather yourself together, use your inner strength and head back. Along the way, you think to yourself, how can I make the right choice the next time I’m standing there at the fork in the road? How does anyone really know which way to take? Sure, people try to use logic, make lists of pros and cons, ect. But, in the end it’s your choice. I hope when your confronted with this that you make the right choices in your life and not have to walk back down that lonely, rocky path to find yourself again.
