The sign said don't do it, so naturally I did.

It's interesting how as we age, so do our problems. The problems we had when we were teenagers are not the problems we have today. We are now faced with decisions and choices that could end up affecting the rest of our lives.

That's not scary, that's terrifying.

There are so many blogs and articles surfacing at the moment about all the things you should do before you settle down and all the decisions you need to have made before a certain age. It's really pretty scary because if you haven't reached that point in your life yet, all those choices can be quite daunting.

The good new is that life isn't that cut and dry and choices really aren't that scary.

You can't be afraid of making choices or decisions. Yeah, you might make the wrong choice at some point. No, actually you will make the wrong choice at some point. You're going to make a mistake, not once but two, three, maybe four times. And then you'll do it again. But you'll survive.

The mistakes you make are not going to destroy the rest of your life, because as I've written on here before - everything happens for a reason. You can't let fear hold you back.

In the end, you have to ask yourself what kind of person you are. Do you believe in signs, do you see miracles, or do you believe that people just get lucky? Or, look at the question this way: is it possible that there are no coincidences?

I believe that life has a funny way of working itself out and ultimately we end up where we belong.
