is it just me or is the right thing to do always super tough... the path of least resistance never happens to be the right one.. isn't it ironic then the laws of physics are based on this very foundation. guess life is much more complicated than physics.
these days i think before i act.. maybe i am growing up. its tough to do the right thing but i try. can't keep being impulsive all the time.. and then u have to learn from your past mistakes. i guess i now realize the importance of history. as a kid i hated the subject but it seems to makes sense.
a friend once told me "i regret the choices i did not make" think about it for a sec it takes some time to sink in. so one way of looking at it is right choice may not make u happy right now but in the long run u will thank yourself for being wise. And then there is this other side to it.. "what the heck. let me do what feels good" the path of least resistance. easy. instant gratification. "i may regret it tomorrow.. maybe i wont. i'll cross that bridge when it comes."
if any of u happen to read this.. i'd like to hear ur thoughts/experiences... do u regret any "right" choice u made...

I think experience teaches u to keep a balance between impulse and the wisdom to discern. So one learns either by choosing an option or leaving it.
