A question for you readers:

If you saw your life splitting in the quantum realm, what two big decisions would play out?

For me, one of the biggest decisions that affected who I am today was deciding which college I went to. If I hadn't gone to Pepperdine, I might not have ever been able to study Creative Writing, and you might never have received today's story.

If my life was split... I feel like the split would have happened when I graduated college and chose to move out of the country. It started a lot of things in my life, and I could have chosen safer.

Yeah moving to Mexico as a missionary was...definitely non-traditional.

As always, entertaining, thoughtful and leaves this reader pondering. Thanks Zak!!! Well done. Cannot wait for the next post!!

As for the reader question, the first the comes to mind is a business opportunity offered in 1992, that I could not see as viable. My wife and I often ponder how our lives would look different if another choice was made and it was successful. Unless I run into a collider I guess we will never know.
