Wishing upon a star, every last damn star........

Every so often, I hear about someone wishing or praying really, really hard for a sign, some thing to guide them or an answer to either a question or problem. We spend so much energy looking for some recognizable sign that most of the time we miss the larger ones that are practically smacking us in the face.

Sometimes, while we pray/wish whatever, we get our sign, answer. Sometimes it comes as something that we are not expecting. When we are aware, we end up with more questions than originally wanted answers to.

How do we make the correct choice or decision?

So we sit

we pray

we wish

we look

we anticipate

we ponder

we feel despondent

In the end, we often end up where we were had begun.

How do we translate the 'sign' that we are given? How do we begin to make the decision that might alter our lives?

Sometimes we look so hard for some small sign to give us answers. All to often we let others make decisions for us. Remember that coin toss? Heads for yes etc.

Some people are so scared to make the step forward in their lives that they either become stagnate or have made really bad choices in the past that we let others lead us down that damn primrose path.

Ever wonder what life would be like if everyone took that collective breath & charged head first into the unknown?
