As we all grow up

As we all grow up we will all face some kind of obstacle and we will eventually have to decide what to do next.
If a tree is in the way of your path do you ignore it and go around it? Or do you chop it down so that way you never have to deal with it again?
  • If you chop it down then if you don't plan it right then it can hurt us or the people around us. It could land one your mom and break her arm but she would heal, but you wouldnt even know it did unless she yelled or you went looking for her. Or even worse it could land on you and eventually kill you. But are you willing to take the risk of hurting someone just so you don't have to put up with something you cant stand?
  • If you ignore it and go around it then you don't have to worry about it unless you have to take that same path again. Who knows other people will probably be able to go around it, and ignore's it. But its always going to be there, unless a storm comes along and knocks it down, or lightning hits it.
No matter what option you pick the decision is always going to be up to you, Is the outcome great enough to block out the risks?......In the end there is always going to be that one person that the tree matters to because of how long its been there and all the benefits of having that tree, like the shade, or the how beautiful the tree looks to them. And are you willing to block out how much it means to them just so that you can have your way?

Every one has to make that decision sometime in their lifetime. But sometimes in order to get rid of the things we hate we also get rid of the things we love just so that we wont have to put up or deal with that thing..... This decision is the hardest one to make and yet we make the decision with out thinking of the things we love.

Back in second grade they replaced the metal slide with a plastic one. Every time I went down that new slide it would shock me, so I decided that having the fun of going down the slide was one of the things I had to lose in order to never get shocked on that slide again. That was like the first time I had to do something like that but I make those kind of decisions like every day, but I'm probably not going to say what those decisions are unless its someone that I can trust, or if its in person then I might, but not on the web.

Any way this is all I can think up for now so stay tuned for tomorrows post.
