Life Is All About Choices

Life is all about choices. We all make a CHOICE in our lives that will make us free and happy. Sometimes those choices may be the easiest ones or it can be the most excruciating thing that we will do. We make choices not to please anybody, but ourselves. We make choices that may affect the people we know, even who we love, and it may not be the best for them, but it is the right thing to do for YOU. We may seek advice from the people around us, but in the end it's still your CHOICE to live your life the way you want to.

A choice I made a long time ago was to live my life independently, to be free from what I can do with my life, making my own decisions and moving forward to what I want to do in my life. A choice that made me who I am now, though I still doubt myself, I am more than enough capable to deal with my problems with courage and strength. A choice I made that made me believe that I can do the unthinkable (for myself).

A choice I made before was to get married, though it didn't work out, I left out being in love for a long time. It was a choice I made because of the pain of being left alone when I had nothing. I made a choice not to believe in love again, because I know the pain of losing someone when you put all your heart into it. Though now, I am freely talking about being alone or falling for someone, I still believe in the choice I made that time before I fell in love, and that is... If I get into a relationship, I wanted it to be the last one and the only one, because why would I get into a relationship just for the sake of it? When I am in a relationship, she would be the only one in my life, and in the center of it is God.

The choices I made that greatly impacted my life are the hardest ones I did. Being independent and being committed to the only one I will love. No pretensions, straight-forward and life well lived. The decisions I made hurt even myself, but it was the right thing to do. I trusted my gut-feel to stay away from the toxic nature of my past life and live happily with what I have now, even I am living alone. Life may throw us curve balls, but in the end you will find out how to deal with it. And the best decisions I made, was the most fulfilling and satisfying things I ever did.

Life must not be boring. Life must be stress-free. Life must be well-lived. People may take advantage of our kindness, but it is our decision to live the way we want it, not because of others but for ourselves. We may think it's the best thing to do because we don't have choice or because our heart tells us it's the right thing to do, but the right thing to do is not made by our heart but our head. Our heart makes us illogical, our head makes it logical; our heart makes us unconscious, our head makes us conscious; our heart makes us do the wrong decisions, our mind makes it right.

It's your CHOICE to make your life the best possible it can be. Because think about it, if you are forced to make a decision and in the end it would be the worst for you, then all you will have is regret. Make life decisions slowly and decide with your mind. With that, YOU WILL BE HAPPY AND GLAD!
