Decisions, Decisions, Decisions.

Act Three:
Scene: The offices of Lilly &Co.


Two employees of Lilly &Co. and I are all in the board room. Posters of print media for different Republican candidates line the walls. Governor Rick Perry is staring me in the face, adn these people talk to him monthly. Not the least bit intimidating. All in all, it goes very well and they inform me that they will be in touch first of next week.


Fast forward an hour: Susan LILLY calls and asks if I am still and town....she wants to meet me. She proceeds to scare the CRAP out of me with the workload, the narcissistic cliental, and the lack of a life in general. She also tells me they will be in touch on Monday/Tuesday.




I find out about Cultivate tomorrow....


Scenario 3...I open my own boutique. The business plan is finished, and the logo is designed. All that's left is financing and I have a backer in place. The timing seems to be right; not to mention I have certain things that pull me towards staying in East Texas.


Biggest few days of my life thus far. And A LOT to consider. I've replayed every scenario over in my mind a hundred times. there are pros and cons to each. Whichever option I choose, takes me down a a completely different path....


Life is about the choices you make...and every opportunity has a shelf life.

The Road Not Taken - Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;        5
 
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,        10
 
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.        15
 
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.        20
