Many times life throws us a curveball and we are not sure how to proceed.
We look at the circumstances and see no choice for us.
Or rather the choice does not present itself clearly, or we do not wish to look at the choice.
There is a sense of fear at the thought of something different for ourselves or the alternative is so unpalatable that we assume that what we are doing or the path that we are walking is the Only One.
