Dilemma…Win-Win Situation

Win-Win Situation as defined by wiktionary is a situation where both parties gain from a transaction or deal, or where all possible outcomes are favorable.

ex : Hiring summer interns from the university continues to be a win-win situation with students gaining valuable real world experience and businesses receiving the benefit of employees with cutting edge technical skills.

Dilemma as defined by wiktionary is a circumstance in which a choice must be made between two alternatives.
I have never expected that another dilemma that is in a win-win situation would emerge again. Marami na rin akong napagdaanang dilemma whether win-win, win-lose, etc. The most recent na naalala ko is when I went to the 5th AFLBS in Cebu. Its between choosing to go there and attending a wedding na part ako ng entourage. Matagal kong pinagisipan actually yung dilemma na yun and I decided to choose both. You might ask in what way can I choose both kung dilemma nga. The 5th AFLBS was actually on a Friday and a Saturday. The wedding is on a Sunday (uuwi kasi kami galing ng Cebu by Sunday kaya alanganin pumunta sa wedding). So ang ginawa ko ay pinaschedule ko ang flight ko ng Saturday evening instead of Sunday. Kaya ayun, nakapunta pa rin ako sa wedding. The only disadvantage ay hindi ako nakasama sa pag-gala ng mga kaibigan ko at hindi rin ako nakapag say goodbye sa lahat :(. Pero ok lang kasi the experience was great and I get to find a solution for my dilemma :)

Ngayon naman, another situation na ganito rin ang nagemerge. I have to choose between going to the 1st birthday party of my pamangkin sa pinsan (which is once lang magaganap sa buhay nila) or going to SOL 1 and church service (11 am kasi start ng party so medyo alanganin kasi SOL 1 starts around 1 pm). Pinagisipan ko rin ang magiging decision ko pero this time ay for only a short time. I also asked the Lord to help me through my prayers. I don't know how it happend pero around friday ata yun, I told my mom na hindi ako pupunta sa party. I just felt na kahit may hinayang (up until now) I know I made the right decision to go to SOL 1 class and of course sa service kasi may malaking welcoming na magaganap. :) 

Although it is not comfortable to have "these" kinds of situation, I know that the Lord is always there to guide me sa mga gagawin kong decision. Thank you Lord :)

'Til Here. Adios Amigos and Amigas. :)
