There are dozens of such moments everyday. Moments when you stand - as it were - at spiritual crossroads, with two ways lying before you. Such moments are typically called "moments of decision."
It does not matter what the frame or content of each particular decision is. It all devolves, in the end, into just two roads before you, every time. The one will lead to less gratitude, less kindness, less forgiveness, less honesty, or less love in the world. The other will lead to more gratitude, more kindness, more forgiveness, more honesty, or more love in the world.
Your Mission, each moment, is to seek to choose the latter spiritual road, rather than the former, every time.
The Rev Richard Nelson Bolles
