Resolved

Somehow issues get resolved
Despite a lack of action,
With results, quite possibly,
That meet with satisfaction.

When decisions must be made,
They might antagonize us;
Yet when all is said and done,
The outcome could surprise us.

People may get mired in doubt
And can’t see the solution;
Often, though, there is a choice,
A worthy substitution.

I’m an indecisive sort.
As such, I’m often stuck;
But things get sorted out somehow,
By fate or chance or luck.
