Do I always choose correctly, obviously NO.
Do I always practice what I preach, unfortunately NO.
And by becoming aware of this, I keep improving every day.
I control what I eat, drink or don’t drink. I decide to exercise or not to exercise. I can waste time surfing the web aimlessly or I can read good books with a clear objective in mind. I can stay by myself or meet with interesting people. I can take some classes or stay ignorant. I can be generous or greedy. I can be patient or impatient. I can be angry or peaceful. I can be dissatisfied or thankful. I can be optimistic or negative. I control with who I want to spend time with and who I don’t want to spend time with. I decide who can influence me and who can’t . These choices are mine and mine alone most of the time.
What will your choices be today?

Our choices are our own, but sometimes its hard to find out theright choice in a situation. Some things aren’t clear cut, so I think choices are sucky, hehe. Its easier when people tell me what to do.

It is easier when other people choose for you, but it is not always in your best interest, especially in the adult world. As long as you live with our parents, I think most of their choices are in our best interest, or at least they try…even when we don’t think so at a young age. We only come to realize it later.
But when we become fully responsible for our own lives, it is each of us for ourselves, and then, the importance of our choices will take over.
