some tough decisions




"We choose our joys and sorrows long before we experience them."

-- Kahlil Gibran


what do you do, when you have to make a choice between what is right and what you want to do???

yes, it's a tough choice for sure, because either ways, there will be disappointment and fear of failure.......

if you do what is right, you regret not being able to do what you wanted......

and if you make the other choice, you know what you have chosen was not the right choice to make........

is it just God's way of making us aware, that we cannot have EVERYTHING???

or is it just that what we consider right and wrong, sometimes might not be applicable for us..... making us reconsider them and our views on the same.......

too confusing..... but all i know is, we are defined by our decisions and we create our future by our choices.....

now if only, one knew how to make a decision and not feel bad or regret not taking the other route!


Finally, a quote that sums it all......

"To decide to be at the level of choice, is to take responsibility for your life and to be in control of your life."

- Arbie M. Dale

There is no such thing as a right decision or a wrong decision. Thereis only a right objective or a wrongobjective. I am a firm believer in the dictum that end justifies the means. It is the essenceof the Bhagavadgita toowhjere a person like Yudhishtir had to tell a lie towin the war under the covert blessings from Lord Krtishna.

So dont have any qualms, Do what needs to be done. That is it !
