A difficult decision I had to make was whether or not I should share some money with my cousin, who did not have any of her own. On one hand, the money belonged to me, and I wanted to use it to buy something for myself. However, I knew that sharing it with her would make her happy, so I chose to split the amount with her so that we could both buy something. If I had decided not to, I think that she would have been sad.
