A tale of new boots and uncomfortable life chafing
March 1, 2016
What it? The choice is never easy. The way is never clear, the door is never open?
What if?! There never seems to be an option to take that will bring happiness and light?
What then?
How can I turn?
How can I choose?
Which way can I go?
Which place is for me?
These questions lie in the heart of the thinker who sees only these choices…
yet there is always more.
A way yet unseen,
A pathway that is hidden, and still undiscovered behind the turns you do not wish to take.
How to make a choice when every option seems like a bad choice?
Sometimes the choice is all that’s needed – the thought of the outcome is rarely what we see.
What if?! The outcome is never as you believe it will be?
What if? ! Behind the choices that seem impossible,
The choices that are hard
The choices that seem to lead only to difficulties
What if behind those, is an outcome that you can never foresee?
The thought of the choice is often the hardest thing to overcome.
The thought of the outcome is where the difficulty lies.
But what if we can take out our thoughts of what might be, and choose only the choice.
The left or the right
The yes or the no
The take it or leave it
The accept or reject
What if the choice itself is the moment of magic?
What if we allow ourselves to think only of that – the choice?
To go or to stay – a question a choice, without the baggage of what might be. Because then the choice is a simple question.
What then?!
What if?!
