Why make life difficult for yourself when life, it so often seems, has a natural way of making itself difficult for you? Some people think they have an answer to this. They honestly believe that if the universe sees us struggling with a problem of our own creation, it will take mercy upon us and refrain from presenting us with any additional troubles. Such assumptions deserve to be questioned.You have to ask yourself how willing you are to carry on if it isn't all so simple. You may be starting to doubt the wisdom of an idea. Or maybe you are just not sure who you are and what you want any more There is certainly no advantage to be gained now in taking the long way round what should be a short process. Unless, that is, you enjoy it.
