Your choice

You always have a choice. You can choose to stay safely within your comfort zone, or you can choose to venture out and take part in life. You can choose the easy way out, or you can choose to put forth some real, effective effort.

And the choices you make, will determine the life you live. Every action has a result. Every choice has its consequences. Look around you. Everything you see, everything in your life, is the result of choices you have made.

You always have a choice, whether you want it or not. You cannot escape the choices, nor can you avoid their results. Yes, you can choose to let someone else run your life, but of course that is a choice in itself.

In the end, it is up to you. You are responsible for you, and that responsibility is reflected in the choices you make.

Life can be a wonderful opportunity, full of joy and fulfillment, if you choose.

— Ralph Marston
