Choices and Consequences
"You are the person who has to decide. Whether you'll do it or toss it aside; you are the person who makes up your mind. Whether you'll lead or will linger behind. Whether you'll try for the goal that's afar. Or just be contented to stay where you are." - Edgar A. Guest, the People's Poet
Choice. Regardless if we acknowledge it or not, we all have choice. Choice of what we do, what we think, who we are. It is up to the individual to recognize her choice and the ramifications to each choice.
