Living with Choices

    They say that life is all about choices.. The course of your life depends upon the choices you've made in the past. Once you've made your choice, there's no turning back, you just have to live with the consequences.. Scary..right? What if we made the wrong choice? Are we going to suffer forever?
    Whenever I'm faced with a dilemma, I am always a sigurista..meaning, I always choose the safest option, the one that would require less changes in my life..I'm not a risk-taker either..I always stay within my comfort zones. Because of this, I see my life as a stagnant pool. I have less opportunities to explore my hidden potentials. I was often afraid of stepping out of my shell, scared that I might disappoint myself...     But all of these things changed when I decided to build a stronger relationship with God.. He opened my eyes to appreciate everything around me, that life is too precious to be wasted upon less important things.. He taught me how to set my priorities in life. Giving up things that would make me come out of my comfort zones. Giving up relationships that would hurt me and my loved ones... Before I surrendered everything, I tried to bargain with God.. In other words I was stubborn.. I ignored everything that He was telling me... but what can I do? God is God. Eventually, I obeyed, and I think it's one of the most painful experiences in my life...  It's hard and painful but ironically, I felt at peace with myself.. I know that God knows what I needed the most in my life.. God is faithful with His promises and He will never harm me. I guess it's going to take a long process before  I get over my sadness, but I'm getting there...

that's true my friend. life is all about choices.... don't be afraid that one day you might realize that you had a wrong choice... its not actually having the right or wrong choice... its how you go for you choice... how you deal with it....

lene... others might get hurt because of your decision but eventually they will understand.... you are a good person... God is testing you right now because she wants you to be a better one...

i would like to tell you that i am inspired with what you are doing right now.... i hope i can be as open and as brave as you... yes you are correct... sometimes we tend to become selfish... we hold on something or persons because we don't want to feel sad... a selfish reason...

just go girl...
God will guide you always...
