Options

Many years ago my place of employment was looking to expand, build and find an off-site for management offices. They announced their plans.  However, some weeks later, word changed that they were scrapping the original plan and going with plan B. With great frustration an employee asked, "why do they always lie to us?"

I had already come to realize there are always "options" and what at first may look good another option actually may turn out to be the better choice. This was really the case; there was no lie intended and no lie given.

When we get in a tight pinch we sometimes don't realize we too, have options, no matter what the situation.  We may possibly not see the alternate ourselves but with input from others, another side may become evident. 

I believe that life always gives us more than one way of dealing with challenges. Sometimes it's just a matter of looking within ourselves, asking the divine spirit for guidance. We may need to listen to that "still, small voice" or may need to ask others. Either way, we always have options!
