Life = Choice

“Life is a matter of choice, every choice you make makes you.” As said by John C. Maxwell. Life is indeed a matter of choice. We often say that everything happens for a reason. That reason will be then fruit of our actions. It will serve as the consequence for the things that we made.

Choice is a decision made by a person. It is what brings us to our destiny. Choosing what is right gives us the feeling of fulfillment and satisfaction. Doing the right thing results to happiness. On the other hand, choosing and doing what is wrong gives us our problems. We make our problems and it is our outlook in life that makes us feel miserable. That is what we need to realize –that we’re the ones who placed ourselves in a bad situation. We are the problem, it about how we think and how we face our own problems.

Change is the only permanent thing in this world. Choosing what is right or what is wrong makes us change but we must not let those changes destroy us. Whatever may be the result of our choices, we must always rise above it. If it gave a positive result, allow it to make us into better persons. If it doesn’t, it will teach us a lesson. Do what is right and choose to be happy so that we may change and grow into better persons.
