There are times when, whilst floating in the deep, we reach a crossroads. And then in what can sometimes seem an eternity we have to grapply with the whys and hows, the ins and outs and the pros and cons of left vs. right.
Sometimes these can be minor moments of decision making. But from time to time its a big one - a life changing moment that will reverberate through both you and the universe for time to come. Lists, discussions, hand wringing, evaluations, advice taking and navel gazing ensues. Feelings count. BUT so does logical analysis. Both are necessary. This all takes time. And effort. And honesty.
In the end the decision is stripped to its bare bones. The lies, inconsistencies and bad faith removed in a moment of bright lightnad for me anyway - articulation. Its true nature is revealed. and in the moment a little of mine is revealed too. I see that rather than being a cross roads the fork is in fact the universe showing me a little more of who I am and me patiently waiting for my experience to allow me to honestly choose who I want to be.
In the end, if I go left it is only under very specific conditions and if not I will go right. And either way I will be thrilled so long as the conditions were met. Because the underlying factor that governs both forks is me - who I am - who I want to be and which bit of my ongoing lifework that the universe is kindly allowing me to fill in next.
