View Full Version : The fork in the road

There comes a moment in everyones life that there is a fork in the road. Your life can go one way or it can go another. I believe I have reached that fork in my life. Things will happen in the next week that will determine my future. One path is the path I have imagined for myself. The path I want to live. On the other is a path that is not so good. It means hardship and uncertainty. What path I my life takes is no longer in my control and that's what upsets me the most. I made a mistake and got away with it. I didn't learn my lesson and I repeated that mistake and now it is very possible it could bite me in the ass. Not only affecting my life but those I care about. I hate this waiting to know what is going to happen. I'll just say this. Mistakes in school can cost you marks, mistakes at work can cost you your job, but mistakes in life can cost you your future.

Did you get a DUI or something?

I don't really know what to say because I don't know the situation except that I hope everything works out for you.
It's apparent that you have learned not to repeat this mistake so hopefully the punishment isn't too severe. Good luck to you.

Sometimes it takes more. You'll be tougher for it and will have an increased resistance to whatever made you repeat your mistake. Besides, you never know when a new fork will present itself, maybe next time will be a happier fork.

****...

I know what you mean here. I at 26, am doing something I never envisioned I would do at 18 and inbetween have done things I never thought I would do. What I am trying to say is that we all make mistakes that effect our futures in some way, but our futures aren't always so certain. Life is a game where you roll the dice and take a chance. Sometimes you come up trumps, others you bust. Be focussed on what you want to happen in your life, but don't have tunnel vision at the same time, see the bigger picture, consider wider options. The world has a lot to offer, more than any of us are ever likely to see or know about...it is a lot bigger than what we are bought up to know, believe me

I certainly hope so seldom. This is life altering **** for me and right now it look like the two paths go in opposite directions.

Sounds to me like your girlfriends late on her period. But, whatever it is, you can handle it Hockey. Like many have already said, we all make mistakes, some very large mistakes in my case. It is how we handle ourselves during adversity that truly shows us who we are. Nothing is never as good as it seems, and nothing is never as bad as it seem. Good luck and hope everything works out for you.

I thought we had a pretty good show planned out until the promoters figured that people wouldn't pay to see us fight.

They could've added me to the bill, and prmoted me as "BJ Penn's overweight, less talented cousin."

I would have school you all. They could have promoted me as "the overweight engineering student who can only train part time" so watch out.

G-Man, are you experienced in the ways of household MMA? Where a well placed couch can be your best friend as well as your opponents worst enemy.
