Choices

Kelly: Lately I've been thinking a lot about choices. We are all a product of our choices.
A co-worker and friend is trying to decide which of two great jobs to take (not a bad problem to have), but I can see how much she is struggling and weighing all of the ramifications that one choice would bring. Each choice that she had made in her life up to this point has enabled her to have the choices that she is facing presented to her. Free will/ the ability to choose is an amazing gift and responsibility.

Matt is facing a choice of jobs. One option is with his company (secure) but pending a contract award (unsecure). The second option is with a small business without a big reputation (unsecure) but the offer is on the table (secure). His ability to be in this position is due to the many choices he has made in his life.

For both my friend and for Matt, the weight of this decision feels enormous; however, six months to a year from now, this likely won't be seen as a "cruicial" decision, merely one of those decisions in the past allowing for another decision to be made in the present.

Bon chance!
