31 THE WILL TO CHOOSE–CHOICE

SAM_5038

I could have

I didn't

That is what freedom of choice allows me to do

Deal with it

or

Not

Either way

It is

As I chose it to be

    Hey, just cruisin’ around, stopped by. Enjoyed your blog. Good Rap with great meaning. I like your statement "get over it", I use use it often. And, also you reminded me of an old conversation I had with my Grand-Father (A of G Minister) about white lies. Your comment on "not everything needs to be said". My GF told me when faced with a situation where you felt that what you had to say might really harm someone. Either work your way around it, don’t say it, or if faced with an extreme situation where you have to respond, use "the white lie" he said. That’s a comment that causes no harm but may not be the whole truth. The instance I’m referring to was when my Grand-Mother came home wearing black patent leather go-go boots (Nancy Sinatra, boots are made for walking), and a mini skirt. She asked me if I thought she was beautiful, and I had to say "Yes", even though she actually looked very ridiculous (Sorry Grandma) it had to come out. Well enough rambling, I’ll be back, keep up the thought formations. RR

  6. "I’ve had choices, since the day that I was born, there were voices that told me right from wrong." Words from a song sung by my very favorite singer, George Jones. I think I will get it out and put it on my space. If you will stop by later today I should have it on there.
    Great topic, I agree, we should all be allowed to make our own choices.

  7. hi fab. i like and agree with your words above, btw. thanks for your comment. And i hope the damaged parts of your body are recovering after your fall. that black ice is wicked stuff! though, in honesty, we don’t get much ice here these days. global warming or wotever,when i was a kid we had plenty of snow for sledging and snowball fights and the rest. these days, it seldom stays on the ground for more than a couple of hours. be lucky, my friend. phil

  11. Hello Greetings.

    Great subject to ponder over in the new year.

    Many things we do and many things we don't do because we exercise our freedom of choice. Even if we don't do anything it is still a choice made by us. Even murderers and thieves make a choice while committing the crime. Some choices we make by imitating the choice made by others. Sometimes we have many alternative choices before us and we chose one of them.

    Lovely post on choices. Best wishes.
