What were the pros and cons of Caesar crossing the Rubicon River?

Crossing the River Rubicon means that you have to make a decision in a short amount of time. The decision can affect the person’s life, or it can affect other people.

My River Rubicon moment was over the summer when I was getting over my fractured finger. I had tennis that day, and it was an important match. My finger still hurt pretty bad, but it was on my left hand, so I could still use my good hand for hitting the tennis balls. I had to make a quick decision because if I wasn’t going to go, we had to call and tell them that I wasn’t going. I thought of the pros and cons. Pros to going to the match was that I got to have more practice and if I won, I would be rewarded. Cons to going to the match was that I could possibly hurt my finger again, and I wouldn’t be able to play to the best of my ability. If I were to stay at home, my finger would be fine, but the cons are that I would feel guilty because my opponent couldn’t play. I had come to a decision. My decision was to go and play the match. I was happy with my decision because nothing bad happened to my finger during the match, I got extra practice in, and I won the match. I was proud of myself that I went, and it boosted my confidence.
