between a rock and a hard place

There is beauty through tough choices, and life thrives, no matter where it is planted. Often down to taking the better of two evils, to quote another familiar phrase, there can still be beauty in the decision and the journey it leads you on. I actively try to think about the positive side to everything, and often enough fail, but there it is still, the optimism that there is something good to be had from whatever is set before you. At any difficulty you must face, at any time you are forced to choose between two seemingly unacceptable or undesirable options, when you are required to react to a situation you never imagined or were told would never happen, you grow and adapt to those elements. The outside influences and each experience force us to change from the inside out.
