Choose your Path / Wähle deinen Weg

avatar
When I saw these crossroads, I thought "which way would you go, if you didn't know the right path?". Als ich diese Wegkreuzung gesehen habe, dachte ich mir "welchen Weg würdest du gehen, wenn du den richtigen Weg nicht wüsstest?".

Sometimes a path goes straight, sometimes it makes serpentine lines, but most of the time you only go in one direction, and at least in your life you do not go back because unfortunately you can't. Manchmal geht ein Weg geradeaus, manchmal macht er Schlangenlinien, aber meistens geht man nur in eine Richtung, und zumindest im Leben geht man nicht zurück, weil das leider nicht geht.

Often you come to an intersection or fork in the road, where you can not tell which of the two ways would be the better way. Oft kommt man an eine Kreuzung oder Weggabelung, an welcher man nicht erkennen kann, welcher der beiden Wege der bessere Weg wäre.
Is the path more beautiful that leads upwards? And does it lead to a better future, or leads the way upwards to a dark unknown part of the forest? Ist der Weg nach oben schöner und führt er in eine bessere Zukunft, oder geht der Weg nach oben in einen dunklen unbekannten Teil des Waldes?

Or is the path leading downwards the right choice because it's easier to walk and looks like a lot more people are walking or driving on it, or is it just taking you into deep water where you might drown? Oder ist der Weg nach unten die richtige Wahl, weil er leichter zu gehen ist und so ausschaut, als ob viel mehr Leute darauf gehen oder fahren würden, oder führt er dich nur in tiefes Wasser in welchem du vielleicht untergehst?

Sometimes, however, there is also help along the way, that should be accepted, if, for example, there is a boat next to the path into the deep water, which could safely carry you to the other shore. Manchmal gibt es aber auch Hilfe am Weg, die man annehmen sollte, wenn zum Beispiel neben dem Weg ins tiefe Wasser ein Boot liegt, welches einen sicher an das andere Ufer tragen könnte.

I think next time I'll go upwards. Ich denke, beim nächsten Mal gehe ich nach oben.

Stimmt, er sieht einladender aus, aber der linke Weg führt geradewegs ins tiefe Wasser und dort liegt kein Boot 😉
Das kann ich so sagen, weil keiner genau weiß, wo diese Weggabelung ist ;) lol

Ich gehe oft lieber den dunkleren unbekannten Weg, den nur wenige gehen, denn dort finde ich oft coole Plätze :)

Danke, liebe Grüße und noch ein !BEER 🙂

What a fabulous post, and yes life often gives us intersections and we have to decide which way to go I like to often thing most times its not so much a matter of right or wrong but just a case of what is right for you at the time, I try not to look back and think I should have done this or that whats done is done and I look forward to the next choice
!trdo

Have a great week and hopefully not to !DERANGED ahead ;)

Thank you so much JJ 🙂
You are doing it completely right. Whatever decision we make, whatever path we choose - we have to live with it and make the best out of it. Looking back and cry is wrong and doesn't change anything anyway. Look forward, see what comes and make the right choise next time 😉

I know we may be the exception with this attitude but I think 🤔 it is the way to be my wife has a tendency to look back and use words like could have or should have I always say those are wasted words and that probably drives her nuts 😂

I do also sometimes think back, often very far back and think, what I could have done better or different, but most times I find out, that the way I have chosen then was the best anyway, or some good things wouldn't have happened if I had made another decision :)

The way I look at it is if I had made a different decision say 40 Years ago, who knows what it would have affected and where i would be now,
For example when I was in Singapore I turned down a job I was offered there, and suggested they hire a colleague of mine which they did, the company soared and my colleague and friend is still working for the company, lives in a huge multi Million dollar penthouse apartment and is rolling in money, sure i could regret that but then I wouldn’t have joined the UN and had the experiences i have had or met my wife, so I look on it as it wasn’t meant to be

Cool story and certainly something I would think about sometimes - what would be if ...

But I am always asking myself about the same as you do: Would I have met my wife if I had chosen to go to that art school in Vienna which my teachers told my parents when I was 10 - I was 10 and they wanted to send me far away!
No, I certainly wouldn't have met her and I wouldn't have got these two children of mine, which I love more than myself.
So, the decision I have made with 10 was good and I am glad, that my parents didn't send me away 🙂

ITs of course natural we ponder what would have happened if we made those choices back then, Like me deciding not to go to UNiversity against the well meant advise of family teachers etc etc

BUt I suspect if I had gone to Uni. Would have bene a party animal and not done much studying so who knows

Welch schöne Idee diese: Foto - Wege - Leben - Analogien! Meist entscheiden wir uns für den Weg mit dem geringsten Widerstand. Im Leben können wir das Ziel nie wirklich sehen/kennen - so kann uns dann nur eine Vision o.ä. locken... ;-) Danke für die Inspiration und lieben Gruß Kadna !invest_vote

When I saw these crossroads
I thought about life
Whenever faced with a choice
Will We choose the big road or the small road ?
!BEER !DERANGED !COFFEEA

That is the question we are asked or we ask ourselves many times in our life and then we have to make the right choice.
But I think that most choices we make are the right choice anyway - taking the big road might as well be wrong as the small path. So, either path is right or wrong, and I believe, that I would go the same paths which I have chosen, if I could live my life again.


To give a !DERANGED and a !BEER is an easy and simple way for me to say thank you for being nice, and giving an additional !MARLIANS or !COFFEEA means I thank you even more 😉

Then I admire you.
When I look back at the road I have traveled,
I always think that 80% of the way, my choice is wrong.
Unlike you, you have chosen the right path.
So I can often in the !shop , drinking !BEER !COFFEEA, let me !DERANGED

No, I didn't say I have chosen the right path, because I can remember some decisions which have been wrong, but if I wouldn't make them again I might never have met my wife and would not have my family and nothing would be the way I love it now. This is how I meant it - my decisions might have been wrong, but when I look back now they have all been right - sounds !DERANGED I know 😉


I might be a bit deranged but not only I have a !BEER for you today, but also a !COFFEEA which I have bought at the !MARLIANS !shop 😉

Yes.
After we have made a choice, Even if there is something unsatisfactory, we should try our best to improve him, and remember this lesson. If we encounter a similar choice next time, we will Make better decisions.
