This masked person gives the impression that whatever decision is about to be made, someone won't be happy with it. It is impossible to make everyone happy, and that is really not the purpose of most hard decisions anyway. The Cross suggests a sacrifice, with wishes being put aside for needs and opinions taking a backseat to facts. A student once asked Zen master Yunmen what was the purpose or goal of practice. He replied, "An appropriate response." Perhaps that is the answer to discerning what is the best choice - the one most appropriate.
The right choice is hardly ever the easy choice.
