Choosing is Easy

Choices. Everyone has them. Yet, so many do not recognize them until it is too late.

Choices often present us with chances. Yet, how many times you find yourself going back and re-thinking of the choices you made, of the chances you missed? How many times you find yourself wondering what would have happened if you had chosen differently?

It is a struggle for me not to have regrets over choices I made over the years. I have come to the realization that choosing is always easy. It is living from the consequences of the choices I made that is not always easy. There are days I'm thankful for the choices I made, and there are days I hate myself so much for deciding on bad options. Today is one of the days when I feel neither. What I have in me is just a wistful feeling, mindless pondering of how I would have been now had I decided differently. I guess everyone gets that once in a while. 

I guess I should not be complaining, giving how much blessing I have in my life now. Things might not have turned up as I expected them to or I wanted them to. Things are better! I'm grateful for all the wrong choices I made before. If anything, I learn that mistakes teach me, and not trying leaves regrets. Here's to me, trying to grow old as a lady with no regrets. 

TA!
