“Decisions can be like car accidents, sudden and full of consequences.”

— Allison Glock

Last night, as I was enjoying a hot mug of cinnamon tea by the fire, Witchy burst into my cottage in a panic.

“Liberty! Liberty! I don’t know what to do!” She came to a screeching halt just short of my comfy wingback chair.

“My goodness, Witchy! Sit down and tell me what’s going on.” I gestured toward the chair opposite mine.

“What if I got it wrong? What if I was supposed to do something else?” Her breath was short and shallow.

“Witchy, try to calm down. Take in a few deep breaths and let them out slowly,” I offered in a reassuring tone.

“I can’t! There’s no time! I might have to fix it!”

“Fix what, Witchy? And…there is time to calm down. That’s the best way to approach any difficulties. Plus you still have to breathe; you might as well do it slowly so you feel better and we can talk about the problem.”
