Choices. It’s about to pick
up an option to walk away and not look back. Yes. You cannot have the best of
both worlds.
It is what we think it is. It’s
about choosing to ignore that phone call, and the next one and the next one. It’s
about choosing not to call them back. It’s about choosing either an Xbox or an
Atari. It’s about choosing your own list of songs to be listened to, it’s about
choosing to dance to the song in your underwear or doing something you have
never done before or doing something that makes you smile.
Yes… It’s just a process.
It’s there in your everyday
life; either in the big things and the little things—in starting to wake up
again on the same bed every day... and wearing different kind of dress, and then in removing
the negative people in your life and in replacing them with a positive ones.
But of course, there are thousands of setbacks in achieving it.
Me? I have been through a
lot of tough decisions. I regret most of the decisions that I’d made in the
past. I was young and gullible. I didn’t know any better: well.. Those are the normal
familiar words that I utter to myself on a regular basis. I always use them to
justify the choices that I have made in the past.
But anyway, everything
happens for a reason.
As a Muslim, I believe everything
happens by the will of Allah. Whatever He wills, happens; and whatever he does not will does
not happen. Nobody wants bad things to happen,
right? Hence, the lesson to be learned today is that; underestimation the power
of choice is a no-no. A bad decision made many times over and over, can have a profound
impact on a lifetime, likewise.... for a good decision.
So,
Bismillah…
Just check all that tiny boxes and leave it to Allah.
