The great Solomon wrote a proverb which says, “Whether a tree falls to the south or to the north, in the place where it falls, there it will lie.” While this seems overly simplistic and obvious, it carries profound truths about the power of our choices. While we understand it with trees, that whichever direction a tree is leaning it will fall, we often fail to see how the same principle applies to our choices. We think we can make choices that head in one direction and magically get to another destination. Our choices actually have consequences.
