Crossroads

At Crossroads

To be at Crossroads, means to be at a critical juncture in life, where a decision needs to be made, keeping in mind, all its far reaching effects & consequences …like A COST- BENEFIT ANALYSIS.

 for example: The present situation could be likened to a puzzle that has   several outcomes but needs to be solved in a way that is most beneficial and  effective to the concerned individual, keeping all factors in mind.

Crossroads literally means two/more roads crossing/ intersecting each other, each road taking a different direction from the others to reach a desired outcome/ destination.
Metaphorically & Symbolically speaking Crossroads represents the many options that are available to an individual at a given place , time or situation to accomplish what they may desire or want. It also represents a state of quandary/ confusion/ indecisiveness that engulfs the person in choosing a path.

Certain examples of being at crossroads can be divided into major life changing decisions and smaller mundane decisions of daily life :

i) life changing decisions like moving in/out of relationships, taking up/ leaving a job,choosing a better plan, etc

ii) smaller mundane decisions like getting up early in the morning, choosing to begin exercise/gym/yoga, taking out time to read or going for walk, all kinds of procrastination issues, etc.
