What Do You Do... by C. Scott

What do you do when you feel that life is passing you by?
Do you change the life you're living, or learn to deal with what you have?
We all reach a crossroads in our lives where the tough decisions have to be made
What do you do when there seems to be no answers?

Life is full of choices...
Some we make for ourselves, some are made for us
But, the decisions we never make, and our lives are changed...or not changed...
Can be the toughest decisions of all

What do you do when you feel that life is passing you by?
Do you revert and become more of a spectator in your own life?
Or do you reach out and take life by the balls and try to change things?
There are times to make a stand...
How do you know when those times are?

It hurts the most when we have no answers,
But, I now know that not knowing the questions
Is when you get to know true fear

So, what do you do when you feel that life is passing you by?
That is a question that right now has no answers
Because that isn't the real question
The real question is, are you strong enough to look in the mirror
And ask the tough questions and make the tough choices?

...
It's so true. How do you know when is the right time to make a stand? There have been moments in my life where I thought it was right....but I only ended up looking foolish....and other times when I should have stood up to what life was throwing at me...but I was too passive and lost my way.

Nice one!
