Challenge
Just a quick late night note. I read an article about ethics today and in the comments section a lot of people were stating how they wouldn't ever do the "wrong" thing if the situation in the article presented itself. It doesn't matter what the situation is really, but what I found interesting is how confident they were. Some people said they had experienced a similar ethical dilemma and resolutely said no. Some got fired for the decision and were quite happy about it, some stayed and the person who initiated the dilemma got fired. You never quite know what you'll do in a challenging situation until you experience it firsthand. If something isn't a challenge for you then there's no undue attention paid to it, it's only when you're unsure of yourself in some manner that a situation rises to the level of challenge.
Many times I've looked at the lives of others, far away from any
of the consequences of their decisions, and thought if only the person would do this or that. But it's not me living their life, their challenges are not my own. No, mine are tailor made, just for me. It's a very amusing thought that others would view my blog posts, and the challenges I face therein, and wonder why is he having such problems with this or that, it's easy just do this!
Life is what we make of it, huh, challenges and pleasures alike.
