crossroads in life, what did you do?

yes we all have those points of life. it is difficult to just make one crucial choice at that time. it was i think when my brother has to leave hometown for new job. i also was looking for change and got few jobs. i came back to home taking the least paying job to look after parents.

I had several crossroads in the past. I made the right choice on some,while I chose the wrong way sometimes. It is really difficult to choose when you stand at the point. Others' advices may be not suitalbe to you. As we becoming old, we are maturer than before and can make more right choice.

yes, i went from home to college to military to working in sales to marriage to divorce to getting a job in a FACTORY and working in manufacturing for 30 years..to remarriage..and now retirement.. i do not regret the things that i have done..it is what you don't do that you regret..i have two homes, wife, dog, and two pension checks and it was not until i was 33 that I got my first real good paying job..and 40 before i found my partner for life...so sometimes it takes time but eventually things will come together when you make the right decesions..pick the right people to spend quality time with..birds of a feather flock together...your friends and associates will determine a lot about your success or failures in your life..good luck..life is always about choice.

We have to take risk. We have to take the roads that we feel that we are led to. So it is important that we move when it is our season. Sometimes we do something or move on because someone basically wanted us to do it. But sometimes we need a made up mind. We have to make our own decisions. Lot of times I want to be led by GOD!!!!

The big crossroad in my life was falling pregnant at 16 years old. My family tried to make me have an abortion at the time, they thought that having a kid so young would ruin my life. There was never any question in my mind though, I knew the only answer was to have the baby. I had to decide then whether to stay in school and finish year 12 or drop out as I was pregnant. I chose the right path, I stayed and finished year 12 and had the baby 2 months after I finished school. It was the best two decisions I have ever made. I have never regretted having my daughter and now I have two degrees, one in business and the other in teaching. I am glad that I made the right choice and stayed at school at the time. If I had taken the other path and dropped out of school, then I would not have been able to provide a good lifestyle for my three beautiful kids today.

These crossroads are a pain in the neck! You would think at 34 I would learn to take the easy road by now, but oh no I choose the hardest road every time and I have done since being 17!! When I think sometimes how easy and different my life could have been but how difficult and hard I chose to make it instead I could kick myself!! Next time I come across one I am definately taking the easy way.

This was a crossroads of sorts only I was pushed into something I had not even planned on. after working some twenty years in my local library i had some health problems that needed minor surgery. as a valued employee ,or so I had been told, I had no qualms about asking my boss the branch manager for a two week leave of absence. well dear old boss said this, you are my most valuable employee so I hate to do this blah blah but I have to let yougo, you are after all almost eighty. so I am sitting there in disbelief then like a fool I say well my son has been after me to retire and find a better paying job but all the time I wanted to say what you are doing is wrong as I did do my job well as you just stated and its illegal for you to fire me just because of my age. well i took the easy road and am retired but do not feel too great about the way I was retired. at my retirement luncheon I wanted to say I did not retire voluntarily I was let go. But I did not. Now I wish I had.
