From time to time we may find ourselves making a decision that sends us down the wrong road. That happens not only to individuals but to governments and organizations as well. But taking the wrong fork is only a problem if one keeps going down the road despite understanding that it’s a mistake. No matter how far you have gone down a wrong road – turn back.

Evil is very attractive and does not need special training or teachings to learn. It is much easier to learn the wrong than the right but much harder to unlearn and drop the wrong than the right. Once you pick up any wrong course, attitude, or thought, it quickly eats into you and tries to become part of you. If nothing is done to checkmate it, it becomes addictive and very difficult to stop completely.

A lot of people have found themselves treading the wrong path in life, they feel they have gone too far for redemption and they are almost ruined. It all started as a joke, all they wanted to do was have a taste, quench a thirst or subdue a feeling, now they are caught up in it and have made so many mistakes because of it. They have almost lost everything and all that is left is their miserably addicted self.

Your wrong path could be anything, from alcohol to sports betting, gambling, smoking anything, getting high on anything, womanizing, philandering, masturbation, sex addiction, thuggery, stealing, cultism, partying, living without ambition or direction, spending recklessly, wrong decisions, indecision, etc.

No matter how far you have traveled in the wrong direction, you always have a choice to turn around at any point and make things right. No matter the kind of mistake you may have made in the course, they may have cost you your normal life, family, work, career, business, friends and even pushed you away from the normal society. You can still turn around and change your life for good.

It's worth more turning back than moving forward. It's a wrong path anyway, and won't lead anywhere so what's the point!
