"Fork in the Road" was a really good topic!
Below are just scribble pad notes I made as we were chatting:
What if the hardest part about making a choice isn't choosing? What if it's letting go of the alternative?
We seem to like to second guess ourselves, that if it's as simple as learning to walk forward without constantly looking back?
If you choose, and something goes wrong - you'll think the other road would have been perfect, but it wouldn't have... The other road would've had problems too.
One choice is frozen in time.
Neither choice is wrong. Every meaningful choice costs something.
The right path isn't revealed before the decision - it's revealed by what you do after the decision.
Sometimes it's difficult going toward, and difficult staying.
Choosing something for a season, with the knowing that you can also choose to go back if needed.
Make your choice and build enthusiasm about it. It doesn't have to be permanent.
One person (in a marriage) can lead the fork in the road, and it's possible the other may not want to go that way.....but the one that wants waits for the one who's not to be ready...
Reframe the way we claim as "we had no choice." We always have choice. Pay attention to your self talk when you're in the moment.
Signs of seasons or winds of change, maybe that's all these forks truly are.
