There are a lot of things in the world that are out of our control...suffering, disease, pain...to name a few. However, it is sometimes good to remember we are living. We are living a life only we get to live. We make our own decisions. We set goals and strive for the best. We can do anything we want to do...that we are able to do. One of my dear friend's has a friend that is not doing so well. It seems like the end is near and it makes me realize that this man does not have a choice to keep on living. For some reason, some of us metaphorically "pick the small straw" or "get dealt a bad hand."
We have a chance to live every day how we want to, within reason. No quitting your job or shooting someone down! But, we, who are healthy, have the choice to live, grow, prosper, and make the best of this life. We have the option. Some people do not.
