What happens when we figure out the answer?

We struggle so much in finding out the right questions to ask.
Then we struggle even more trying to figure out the answers.
And then one rainy day we wake up and things are so clear! How could I not have realized this before? It was right there, under my nose the whole time and it took me forever to see it!!!!
You feel a little stupid...

But excited at the same time.
And then you are overtaken by all these weird feelings. The butterflies come back to life in your stomach. You are happy, but crying a little at the same time. You're excited, but scared shitless. You're filled with this renewed energy and at the same time you are frozen and can't do anything.
Then you take a deep breath.

Yes, I'm just breathing now. And it feels pretty damn good!

Every decision we make, we are bound to give up something else which is just as important as that other something you decided to go after.
Choices are never easy to make. They never were and they never will be.
Doesn't matter how old, or experienced, or mature we get to be - choosing between 2 different things is always gonna be HARD.
But the more we go through this process, the less painful it becomes.
What I can tell you is that I recently learned, that the older I get, the easier it is for me to come to peace with the choices I make. And I think that's one of life's secrets to happiness!

I just recently made a HUGE life decision (you will all know in due course, I promise!)
It took me a long time, and lots of sleepless nights to get there - but I finally build up the guts and did it.
And you wanna know how I came to my conclusion to decide for what I did?
It was when I managed to come to peace with myself and accept that if everything went wrong and I ended up in the worst of worlds, I could still live with that. And I would be happy!
And that's I guess how you know you made the right choice!
