Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit,
but in humility consider others better than yourselves.
Philippians 2:3
Trying to remember the selfish ambition part, mostly. I've been on the fence about something pretty big in my life at the moment. It's a hugely tough decision because, no matter the road I take, I lose a little bit. I hurt others, too. Where does the point come where it's okay to be a little selfish for your own good? Should I always be so selfless as to forget what would make me happy and only be concerned with what makes everyone else around me content?
Sometimes I really wish God would just write me a letter telling me what to do and put it in my mailbox. Just about the important things, really. I can handle the small stuff. How do you make a decision and only hope for the best when it could change your entire life?
