Choice (Thanks GM)

When it comes to opportunity and expectations - having choices makes you wealthy far beyond your wildest dreams.

Choices has the biggest impact of all when it comes to choice in a relationship.

We feel compelled to vet all our options in an effort to get everyhing just right and perfect.

I chose to travel alone, live by myself, I had a list of life experiences I wanted to tick off before I wanted to make any informed choice of marriage, settling down - and god forbid having children. Funny enough - lately .... after the 3rd cocktail I tend to start admitting that there could be a possible preference of settling down - but alas, I sober up and that idea wilts with the hangover.

While the abundance of choice in our lives is a priviledge and a blessing, it can also be crippling, because the trouble with having it all - is that you obviously can't.
At every twist and turn through life, decisions must be made, leaving other alterations in their wake that may subsequently haunt us.
We know that there is nothing worse than leaving something behind, only to realise later that it is exactly what we wanted.

It's not that I regret the decisions that i've made, because at the time i felt I had to walk away, BUT did I make the right decision?? Experiencing that paralysing sense of what if ..... ?

The more choices you give people the less likely they are to choose.

People tend to have dissapointing experiences, because their standards are too high, and they think they're at fault.

When it comes to love there is a unrealistic sense that only the best will do, which means that we're dismissing potential partners because we're convinced something even better lies in store for us.

When it comes to matters of the heart, we should give more credence to our instincts. Become a eavesdropper of your own emotions. We don't realise that there is a lot of subconscious analysis going on behind our emotions.
Emotions are actually VERY WISE.


Learn to LOVE the choices you decided on, and make them work for you!!

If choices will always haunt you, there's no way to ever be sure.

the only way to find the right choice is to stop regretting.


Live you life ___ you will see ____ it's fun to be ME
