No speeding.

I think I'll have the pink one...no.... yellow...no..........blue....wait............pink, I'll have the pink one.


We didn't choose to be born , but when we were, we suddenly became decision makers. There is a great power in being able to make choices in life. However, should we live to make choices? Or choose to live one day at a time? I'm constantly faced with decisions. Sometimes I make the right choice and sometimes I make the wrong choice. The extreme thing about making the wrong choice is facing the consequences that follow. Some people (like myself) forget to think things through. Is it ok to make the wrong choice in life? Sure. How else would we learn life's lessons. How are we humbled by making only the right choices? Making a decision is tough, mind altering, tragic, exciting and risky. It's like skydiving, as your plummiting to earth, all these life changing thoughts are scuttling through your head, and in the end, it can be good or bad. Either way, it was life changing and you learned from it. Learing is something that noone can take away from you. It humbles you, it teaches you and it free's you.

Can one decision make you or break you? For sure. But can you always turn from it, make up for it or change your mind? Not all the time. However, you can realize, understand, gain knowledge and strength from it. Changes do come with consequences, but without the committment to change our lives and all the consequences that go with that decision, the change will not take place. Don't settle for whats good, strive for whats best and whats best for you. Cease the opportunity for determination. It's never too late to be happy. It's never too late to make a decision for a better life. It's never too late to live a more fulfilling life. See your choice as a change, not destruction. Change can be scary but can settle your soul. Strap on your "life change" seatbelt and hold on. It's gonna be a wild ride. But DO NOT keep your hands inside the vehicle, for everything the light touches is yours.

Choose the fast lane, and buckle your cupcakes.
