Imagine what the world would be like if we did not have choices! We would all march around like "cookie cutter" robots. We would be poured out of the same mold, given our "assignment" for this life and off we would go to fulfill someone else's destiny for us.What a boring life it would be!
   Instead, we are given lots of opportunities to choose what our "destiny" will be. We have the freedom to choose our career, a mate, where we want to live, how we eat, sleep, play, and worship! (just to name a few!) Why we have so many opportunities to choose, no wonder we complain about all the decisions to make. And yet, what would life be like if someone made all our decisions for us? No doubt life would lack luster because someone else was doing the choosing.  No one knows what makes your heart sing but you!
   Consider the tremendous gift we have to be able to make choices in our life. The next time you complain about your life, go to the mirror, look deep into your eyes and say, "OK, time for us to choose something new." What a marvelous country we live in that we are given the freedom to choose, and if we do not like that choice, we can step away, regroup and choose again. It might be good to remember this the next time you want to complain about your life or the world. Take responsibility and do something to change what no longer works. Whether it's in your life, work environment, or community, do something to bring about change. It beats the heck out of complaining!
