T-junction

What do you when you are at a T-junction?
When you are given two choices - left turn or right turn. Turning back is not an option, as time can't be reversed. So, you can only moved on.

Sometimes, junctions or crossroads in life are not very obvious. Same as some of our roads here. Some junctions might be too small or narrow that people missed them. Crossroads might be much obvious, as they branches out to few options.

Going through the junctions in life are just like driving at times. When driving on the road, you are not the only car. There might be a few others, if not more, driving behind or beside you. So, you need to think ahead, of which way you want to turn, even before you reach the junction. Turning at the very last minute, might cause accident or even due to unforeseen circumstances, you might make the wrong turn, instead.

No wonder people always asked what you want to do in your life, instead of how you are going to do to achieve what you want. Just like most of the people will just ask, where you are going, instead of how you are going. There might be hundreds, or even thousands or routes to reach where you want to be. Just that, which one is the best route.

If the route can reach the destination you want, then nothing is a "bad" route. It is only that you might take longer time to reach, compared to others; or maybe faced more pitfalls than others. However, by the end of the day, it is still what you learnt, through the journey of yours.
