When you come to a fork in the road of life, which do you take?

The left road or the right road?
The left side is the easy side, something you may or may not want, but is easy to attain, will make you content, but may not keep your happy for long.
The right side is the hard side, something you really want, but is difficult to attain, you probably won't even get it, it will keep you happy the longest, but you may not get anything at all and may be worst off than if you had not even driven at all...
Which road do you take? You can't do straight...cos that cheating...I know I want to go straight to...but you have to pick...left or right?
For me? I am still deciding....

You have heard it said it is better to have loved and lost then to never have loved at all. Well it is better to take the chance on something you realy want even if you don't get it then to wonder the rest of your life if your life what could have been.

I will take the left side road. That road will make my life easy. If you get a easy going life you can try to achieve lots of things what you want from your life. In a easy life you will get lot of enargy to fight for what you want. The rest of happyness depends on you. If one want to be happy he/she can live a happy life on the basis of whatever he/she has.

I always go right! LOL. Not necessarily the best idea, since I also get frustrated when I don´t get immediate results, but there you have it.
A couple of examples. 1. I left my home country of Canada with barely any money and no Spanish and headed for Brazil over land. Didn´t have a clue what I was doing, but that is what I wanted. Turned out ok, but boy, was it a shock to all my friends and relatives!
2. I decided to be a freelance writer. There are half a dozen things I could have done that would have been a lot easier, but I have wanted to write since I first realized what a book was, so it wasn´t much of an option. I still have a ways to go on this particular fork, but I can see success in the distance!

That's a difficult decision. The way my life is going now, would have to pick the left. I've got some mighty big bumps in the road right now so taking it easy would be nice...for now.

I was going to say the left but there is a saying that it is better to travel in hope so I would take the right.
