FOOD FOR THOUGHT


Every situation in our life teaches us something - some more gentle than others. Choices often tear us apart. Sometimes forced to choose between options (rock and a hard place) or even desperate situations (devil and the deep blue sea), we'd prefer better odds and more promising results. However, life presents us with opposing options and in the process of selecting one route, we must release the other. These in-your-face forks in the road offer us the greatest opportunity to hold ourselves together when disparate options want to tear us apart.
Accept that a choice must be made and that you can never experience both sides of the result of any situation. You can only drive one car at a time, ride one bicycle at a time and live one life at a time.
Trust yourself enough to recognize your instincts and use your faith guide you to the highest and best outcome.
Know that whatever happens is for the best - really - although you might not see it that way when you're torn to pieces. Years later, when your dismal dilemma exists only as a dim memory, you'll appreciate the perfection of the outcome because it brought you to a higher place - the present moment.
