Words

A deadline is negative inspiration. Still, it's better than no inspiration at all.

~Rita Mae Brown
Trust only movement. Life happens at the level of events, not of words. Trust movement.

~Alfred Adler

I'm a What? I'm a Who?

This first thought has nothing to do with anything, really - today would have been my parents 49th Anniversary.

Weird. Trust me.

The quotes say it all for me right now. I have a (life) choice to make and for the last four weeks I've been utterly unable to make it. I'm stuck. I've got until the 24th and on that day, well, I go one way or another.

And I don't have the slighest clue how to get there by then.

Onwards - nipped from BW...

If you can't decide, flip a coin.

Then do what I do, and flip it again until you get the answer you want. ;)

Good luck with your choice.

I read something once that said if you flip a coin and are disappointed by how it comes up then the other option is your choice....

Unfortunately, both sides are equally disappointing. And that's my dilemna.

"Life is like a game of cards. The hand that is dealt you is determinism; the way you play it is free will."
