Decisions, decisions: Which Road Would You Take?

In life each us is faced with the responsibility of making major decisions. What we ultimately do in the crunch periods will test our mettle, show our character and may even seal our destiny.
So how to go about making a decision?
Typical advice has one make lists, weigh options and generally choose that which is perceived to be easiest and requires less sacrifice. Quick is valued over slow and seeming safety over uncertainty. How would one ever test their limits or discover their mettle this way!

However if one chooses to instead walk the road less traveled and listen to their heart guidance – that road which initially seems most challenging may indeed be the best option to choose.

In the movie Himalaya, which I loved…beautiful scenery and exquisite depiction of leadership, the old leader asks his son who is a Buddhist monk why did he choose to leave the monastery to come and assist him.

The monk answers, my teacher once told me, “if two paths open up before you, choose the most difficult.”

This is not an ultimate answer, but worth considering.
Where in your life can you take the seemingly difficult route…to fulfilling your dreams?

In Defense of Homeopathy

If the goal is improved health one would wonder why homeopathic medicine is relegated into a “fringe” category, especially in America. Homeopathy has its ardent fans who will never let it go, worldwide. The reason is simple, it works. If you have ever benefited from this therapy you would understand. Those that attack homeopathy, know nothing of it. There is gross misunderstanding on their part. Generally what ignorant people do when they do not understand a thing is to attack it. Perhaps there is fear of some sort. What is not present is a love for knowledge, understanding or the ability to allow space for something you do not understand.

Amy Lansky has written an insightful article to address some of these concerns, here is a link.

Also why do we need (allow) these individuals to decide if we want access to medical freedom, choices and options in our health care? Medical freedom is a necessity, not an option.
