Feels good to be decisive. You knew what needed to be done but were afraid of the consequences. I've made bad decisions but they didn't weigh me down near as much as the dread I felt before making them. I remember asking someone out a few years ago and she politely turned me down. I was smiling the whole time. She said "You understand I'm turning you down... right?" I said " I'm just happy I got up the nerve to ask you."
