Sometimes the hardest choices are the choices we have to make.
One of the hardest parts of being an adult is that sometimes you have to make choices that no matter what you choose the outcome will not be a fond one. Sometimes there is no avoiding an unfavorable outcome. I have heard people refer to these choices as picking your poison. These moments don't happen all the time but when they do most of the time they end up becoming defining moments. These moments can be turning points in your life. Sometimes these decisions effect more than just yourself, and it may end up being a life changing moment for someone else too. That is why when we are faced with these decisions we must choose carefully. The important thing to remember when facing difficult decisions like that is not to dwell on the present. Sometimes looking to the future makes a hard decision slightly less painful.
One of the good things about making decisions is that most times your decision does not have to be final. Sometimes we commit to making a decision, we start down a road and later gain more clarity on that decision and see that a course adjustment needs to be made. Sometimes the greatest joy is born from pain, so sometimes what may be hard now will pay off sometime down the road. So even though the choice may be hard you always have to remember why the choice has to be made in the first place. Never make a choice that you are not willing to live with. At the end of the day you have to live with the choices you have made. Don't give up hope, after every storm the sun always shines! You can do it!
