LIFE
Life is always an option. You can choose to live it good or bad. What you decide as a child may determine your future. If you choose good, then you will try to please your parents, teachers, friends and everyone whom you meet. If you choose bad then you do not care what anyone is going to think of you. Even if you were to hurt someone, it does not matter. You may be punished, but after a time you get used to it. You may find a few friends or may not.
Enter the adulthood. You need to get a job or start your own business. Getting a job is like finding a needle in a haystack. So many qualified people and so little jobs available. Finally you get a job even though it is not what you expected or like. You choose to continue and realise you are helping someone else to become rich while you are stagnant. You opt to start your own business and is very successful. Life is beginning and you feel an emptiness within. You need encouragement, and someone to share your life with.
You can choose to get married or stay single with many firiends or a friend. Marriage of course comes with a lot of luggage. If you are not the kind who likes much luggage, friend or friends would be the option. If marriage is the choice, you have a sense of security with your partner unlike with a friend. Although it has its ups and downs, marriage on the whole gives more satisfaction than a single life. Married life does not feel complete without children. They bring a breath of fresh air into the monotonous life. Then again there are those who find children to be a nuisance, an obstruction to happiness. That is a choice the couple would have to make together.
You grow older passing your mid life and wonder what is happening to you. Your childhood seems so close yet so far away. Like a forgotten era. Suddenly it dawns on you. You are reaching old age. It is a place some people take on with much ease and for some it becomes a mental worry. They worry so much to the extent of making illnessess that actually do not exist in their system. They prefer to think that old age means you are sick and disabled. Those who make the most of it may even live upto a 100 because they appreciate what life has to offer. Instead of sitting back on an armchair and moaning from dusk to dawn, they are brisk and healthy, offering a helping hand, looking back on their past years with joy and sharing their wisdom with the young. They live life to the fullest.
Death on the other hand is not an option. It is the ultimate truth we all have to face. Good or bad, married or single, rich or poor, old or young it is our birth right. We can however choose how we are to die. We can live a healthy life, taking care of every need, and live right through to our old age and may be blessed to die in our sleep without a day of suffering. On the other hand, we may live carelessly, without taking care how we eat, travel and live our daily life. This may bring sudden accidental death or death through much pain and suffering.
Whatever life we choose to live we need to remember that our choices can always affect another person, maybe a family member, or a friend, or just someone you meet on the way. Making a selfish decision is easy but making the unselfish one takes courage. The choice is yours, selfish or unselfish.
