Looking for some inspiration.

I’m sorry for lengthy delay between my last posting to now. I have lost a little bit of inspiration lately along with being consumed by the socializing that come along with summer. I promise to write again soon, but for now you will have to settle with a thought...

“Since birth modern women have been told we can do and be anything we want. Be an astronaut, head of an internet company, a stay at home Mum. There aren’t any rules anymore and the choices are endless and apparently they can all be delivered right to your door. But is it possible that we gotten so spoiled by choices that we’ve become unable to make one. That a part of us knows that once you choose something; one man, one great apartment, one amazing job, another option goes away. Are we a generation of women who can’t choice just one from column A. Do we all have too much to handle or can we really have it all?”

i would venture to say not only women fall into this thought. id say we are a GENERATION that can't decide. Indecision i believe is the most difficult "condition" to overcome....this is why we see life-time students, failed marriages, people living at home for longer, and people getting stuck in a rutt....sometimes it is so overwhelming the options, that it is scary to decide. my grampa always said "the only bad decision is no decision at all". and ps he was pretty smart!

I agree with little h's grandpa "the only bad decision is no decision at all". I think sometimes we get stuck because we fear making the wrong choice - taking the wrong path. We focus on what we've missed out on rather than what we are moving towards with our decision.

The key is that life will be full of choices to be made. So what if you mess up on a few of them. You learn from them and become stronger for them and that in itself makes them the right choice at the time.
