That Spork in the road...

Many times in life we feel like there is an impasse of sorts, a fork or rather spork in the road of what to do in life. I say spork because most times you get three options not like 4-5.

But I've recently (well more then that) noticed that these avenues don't just arrive in big junctures in our life's but in every day, every moment we live our daily lives.

For instance today I was meant to work, but my group cancelled so I got an extra day off, bonus but that also meant I needed to pick up a shift with some days off I requested next week to keep my paycheck quality good. I could have just dealt with it as is.

Or the factor that instead of sitting on the couch typing this I am laying on the floor using Stanley's living room pillow for support slightly cold because I have the patio door open to listen to the rain.
I could a: close the door b: get off said floor and sit on the couch creating distance from the door and cover myself in a blanket. or C: none of the above or all of the above. (Even D: grab mom's blanket off her couch and cover myself up laying here. (the fork)) <= I chose D.

We always feel like some how some choices we make or options in life hold too much value to be so important in our life or be the biggest decisions in our lives. Well when we look back on some choices, we see that they were bigger then we thought, and others that we thought were the life shattering,  plot altering choices to our lives, change little to nothing about it in such a big way.

Life only is as complicated or simple as we make it, I know that sounds like a bunch of baloney when your going through a rough patch. But when your think of you circumstances sometimes life can be a whole lot worse. The whole thing that if everyone stood in a circle and threw their problems into it you'd probably gladly take your own back.

With these forks though sometimes they don't come when you want them to, or as fast. So you figure why bother and you keep heading in the direction you were going or perhaps worse the complete opposite.

Or perhaps when you look at them to decided where to go next, you spent to much time analyzing how much time and effort it will take and then start to dissect if that is worth it. Which leads into these long lists of life conundrums of where you wanna be, and who you wanna be. When there really are no guarantees in life. Well besides the one where we live and then we die.

Where am I getting at with all of this? Simply put instead of worrying about the outcome of how long it will take or if its a right fit for you life. How bout jumping in or if you not sure enough for that leap dip your toes in and figure it out. Start planning out the steps you wanna take or need to take to get where you want and figure out all the things big in small in life you'd like to achieve.

Instead of getting so wrapped up in worried about life passing me by when exploring the things I wanna try or do, I've realized that was my life that is my life. As a quote from a favorite movie of mine ( A Lot like Love) goes "Life does wait for you to get back on you feet, its happening right now."
