Making difficult decisions

Decisions are not easy things to make. We make them every day, all the time but the fact is that usually after we make them we can rarely change them. Oh sometimes we do have the choice but think of the truly important decisions - they are the difficult ones to change. This is why we spend so much time thinking about if we are indeed doing the right thing when we make such decisions. Kanhaji is always there to help us and to guide us and we should remember that we can call on Him to help us choose the right path. There are indeed many different paths to Him but how about we ask for His advice along the way? I am sure that He will not lead us astray. Many people say that they like to trust their 'gut instinct'. When we go against that we sometimes regret it. The 'gut instinct' we refer to may be Kanhaji telling us what to do. He keeps us safe and He tells us what we should do if we ask for His help. He sometimes tells us even if we do not ask for His help because His aim is to keep us safe, happy and healthy. This does not mean that He sometimes will not allow us to make mistakes, on the contrary, mistakes are the tools of learning and so some of those are expected. But in the end He wants us to be happy always. Let us all try to remember to ask for His help when we make decisions. I love this picture I included because Baby Kanha looks so serious - it seems that He is deciding whether or not to eat the makhan. Jai Shri Krishna!
