It's hard for me becasue I don't know which one will be the best. Like the good, better, best thing... Or if they are just completely wrong. Or if I just have to make the decision and go with it. But life will carry forward. We can do what needs to be done and sometimes the decision is made for us without us even knowing about it. <br />Anyway, it's sort of like decided what path your book/characters should take as you're writing. Will it push the plot forward? Will it keep the readers attention? But somehow we do it, make the decisions for them. Although, sometimes those decisions are heartbreaking. Sigh. <br />Anyway, great post, David.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06519655950073446857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135194497307080856.post-75451711817469527562012-04-07T01:30:28.961-06:002012-04-07T01:30:28.961-06:00I'm getting to a point where some decisions ha...I'm getting to a point where some decisions have to be made.

When graduation neared I started to think if really wanted to work in the field and decided against. My ideal job, studying animal behaviour would take me away from my family.<br /><br />During a math course which focused on logic I heard a student ask "Who uses logic in their job?" The teacher said that electrical engineers need logic.<br /><br />Didn't go on study electricity exactly, but automation. It's really interesting and I noticed that programming feels fun, as well as computer assisted drawing. Also we built a mobile robot. Will try to build my own this summer.Emilia Quillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15295982824010499581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135194497307080856.post-88894090313682505582012-04-06T14:05:59.140-06:002012-04-06T14:05:59.140-06:00Sounds like you're facing an important decisio...Sounds like you're facing an important decision in your life.

And when they are chaotic, we have to get our head a bit involved, but when it comes to writing...feelings rule. <br /><br />I hope that everything is going well in your roller coaster life.
