Each day we are presented with opportunities to make a choice. We decide we will brush our teeth before going to potty in the morning, bagel instead of eggs, coffee instead of juice. Speed or no speed to get to morning job or chores, jeans or shorts, red purse or green backpack, cheese no cheese, smile or no smile....you get the picture. Although these are basic, simple things, most of life consists of these types of choices.
In our lifetime there are choices that come along that we later discover to be monumental moments in which our lives will never be the same again. What choice did you make the last time this came up? Did you make the choice you would have liked or did you make a huge mistake? Did you regret the choice? What would you do differently? Would you change the choice? What about the outcome?
You only have one life to live. Good, bad indifferent, once the choices have been made, the consequences of said choice have been propelled into motion. Today, if you find yourself at the crossroads of choice making, chose the one that works the best. (Please keep in mind this is not an excuse to do things that are legally or morally irresponsible or wrong). YOU may not get it right. It may be imperfect and challenging, but that doesn't mean it was a WRONG choice.
Be true to yourself, be true to your dreams, be true to your choices. No one ever survives in this life looking back into the rear view mirror to drive forward, to do so would cause disastrous results. I encourage you today to make wise, well thought out choices. Whatever you decide to do, be sure to see it to the end, own it, embrace it and hang on for the ride. I've yet to see anything that indicates our lives would be "sunshine and roses", but there are definitely going to be plenty of "rose smelling" opportunities.
If there is regret, forgive - heal and move forward. Don't give up, and remember this choice is not the end all and be all to life. Make wise choices today, seek Godly council (if available), trust the choices and enjoy your life.....because it's too short to fill it with regrets, and "could have, should have, wish I woulda" thoughts.
