For Every Road There Are More


There are two primary choices in life: to accept conditions as they exist, or accept the responsibility for changing them. ~ Denis Waitley 


When you go to school or do tests, there are right answers and there are wrong answers. The problem with that is, when you are being tested there is only usually two options: right or wrong. However, in life, there are infinite choices or answers to solutions.

For those that don't know, there is a famous story about two choices, the story is called the Lady or the Tiger. The story basically goes, a man has two choices to open two doors. One will either show him a beautiful lady and the other will open to a ferocious man eating tiger.

The story is quite silly besides being a cliff hanger, but also the fact that is how people view life. There are so many choices for that man, the man could have checked the doors before he opened them, he could have looked for another door, he could have got out a bio scanner, or he could have asked PETA to save the helpless animal, and stand, very, very far away, if the tiger was still hungry. The thing is, it isn't just have to be those two doors, there are other factors involved or decisions to be had.

In real life, we have tough choices, however, also in real life we have more than two choices always. The problem is that no one looks for them, because they are so fixated on those two scary or consuming decisions.

However, there is no such thing as time when there are really only two choices, yes they do happen, but as long as you can think of a different option, and remember to think of that different option, you will always have a way out.

So if you are in a tough position and the only choices seem certain death and calamity, remember, there are more than two options always, you just have to find it. If however, you aren't in a tough situation, remember, that there are always more than two options when you are going to be in a tough situation.
There will always be another path, another choice, you just have to find it.

 A hasty decision with two choices involved, is not a choice at all. It is a choice of a prisoner with no choice.
