We all meet crossroads in our life. It’s starts right from young, when our parents decide which school we are to attend. The resultant choice resonates even now. It’s has affected my outlook to life, the type of friends I had and have have.
And I’d like to think ( to plagarise Terry Pratchett), somewhere, sometime, I went down a different trouser leg in the pants of Destiny and am living a totally different life.
Why write about this? Well, it’s almost time to start thinking abt schools for my kids. It’s a daunting task. Rules, consequences, extra activites. This was never in the idiot’s guide to parenting.
Secondly, I feel I am reaching a crossroad in my career. And soon, unseen or not, I have to decide which trouser leg to venture down. Which to let my unseen doppleganger go. How far reaching? I don’t know. I know it will lead to a change in outlook as well as my friends.
Oh well, life as usual.
Good luck with both of these crossroads. I hope that, in the end, you find that the benefits of the choices you make at this juncture outweigh any associated losses. (Obviously, that’s an entirely generic sentiment that can be applied to any situation. Of course, I strive to be entirely generic.)
Also, um, surprise! I follow your blog. I hope you don’t mind.
Haha. I like your profile pic. Welcome to my blog;) Thanks for reading my thought disordered ramblings.
