I’ve had to make some hard decisions this week.
It doesn’t matter what it was about, but it’s forced me to think about what’s really important. Once upon a time I would do whatever I wanted, and hang the consequences. That’s fine when you’re young, but when you get older the stakes get higher. You’ve less time to learn from mistakes and other people get affected too.
I’ve always been curious – never settling anywhere for long and hating taking the easy option. I wanted to go out to the edges and find what was out there. This week’s made me wonder if maybe the hardest thing is NOT doing something and wondering what might have been. This week I did the right thing, I didn’t do something I really, really would have loved to have done, I did the best thing for me and mine instead, the thing that will make us happier. That doesn’t mean it was easy. Just right.
