Pros & Cons

I've come to learn that life and living cannot be divided into two sections...black and white...and that not all decisions can be as simple as right or wrong...and that sometimes we cannot base our choices on weighing the options of pros and cons...instead it's all about who you are, where you find yourself in life, what your willing to live with and how long you're willing to live like that for.

Having learned a little bit about responsibility and sacrifice, I have somehow managed to develop a sense of prediction, a gift of discernment, and have grown my prowess in being able to read much more into people and situations than the average person. And having learnt all of this I have been able to make clear, conscious decisions about what I want out of life and which direction I am heading in. And along the way in discovering and nurturing these gifts, I have structured a system of rules and prerequisites, which along my travels in life, measures I have put in place to enable me to make, not the right choice, but the most suitable ones.

But the Scales of Life has never wished to be controlled by any man walking along it's rocky and narrow pathways, or having the ability to predetermine it's actions, or being able to tilt the the balance of fate itself in the direction you would like to see it loom. Yes, sometimes our decisions in life cannot simply be seen in black and white, cannot be judged by good or bad, and won't always be able to be weighed up and calculated according to it's pros and cons. Because here's the catch, the curve ball, the snag...sometimes the best decisions, the brightest futures, the greatest loves of all time will tilt the Scales of Life the wrong way...because what happens if the cons outweigh the pros? Are you willing to leave the best version of you standing there, or willing to make the sacrifice, take up the challenge and turn the cons into pros? Sometimes life isn't just about one of two choices, sometimes the road less traveled can be the greatest journey ever taken...and the best decision ever made.
