Do you ever regret the paths not taken in your life? As I have told my children many times during their growing up years that when people have a decision to make, they must look at all the factors involved in the decisions. They must take into account how the decision will affect both themselves and anyone else involved. They must also decide what the outcome will be and how this will affect them in the future.
Using this scale to measure decision making, then do we also make the right decisions? Of course not. Many times as we look back on past decisions, we realize what makes we made. Is it too late to make changes? Sometimes yes and sometimes no. All that we can do at this point is to remember the words from the Serenity Prayer: God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. May your days be filled with acceptance of your decisions!
