The forked road

We always have a choice.. whether it be good or bad or easy or hard.. we have a choice.

If u were that person in that forked road.. which road would u take?? the one that leads to nice green forest?? or the one into the dark gloomy one??

Although its such a given question.. i pondered upon my answer.. i pondered on my actions ive done today. Should i study? or should i play? Should i do my quiet time? or should i sleep in more today?

2 simple decisions... u know which one is the right one and yet u pick the other. u stand at the forked road... and u pick the one that leads to the sunshine..

but that road to the sunshine isnt always the right path.. indeed its the devil's work at hand, after so many eons and training in the temptation of humans. The evil ones have come out with so many ways to tempt us and they are becoming very efficient at it.

All the devil needs to do is show u a picture of this forked road, on one hand u know u can have fun and dance around, on the other all u see is hard work and slogging. What u see is the immediate and not the long term, then before u know it the law of nature sets in.. everything in this universe abides by this.. we follow the path of least resistance.

Its a challenge.. but remember this my friends.. we were given free will by God... our choices are not limited by what this world sets for us, our choices are only limited by ourselves. We have the ability to take the path of more resistance even when nature itself cannot defy this law!!

Of course.. this whole session is not about telling u to always take the path of most resistance. but the message i wanna bring across is that... sometimes .. that forked path that we face is not as simple as it seems.. we must learn to discern

John Maxwell once said :
A smart man only believes half of what he hears
A Discerning man knows which half to believe

Which road is truely the better route... maybe the next time we meet that situation, we will ponder about it before taking it.

God bless u all =)
