Have you ever been faced with a situation with two very different possible choices and you don't know which to choose. So you decide on the harder one. Not because you think it is best, or that it will be more rewarding, but simply to see if you can handle it. Do you make the choice that hurts you in the short-term but could end up helping you very much in the long run?
That's what I did. There have been times when I wonder in I did the right thing. But as time goes on, I see now that I can handle it and that I made the right choice. I am so much stronger today than I was then and I have a sneaking suspicion that I wouldn't be as strong if I had taken the easy road.
