What is life's greatest gift? It is choice. Choice is the ability to choose some actions from a set of things to achieve a goal. The reason is that it turns us from dumb animals into artists. Choice becomes the tool we use to sculpt our life. The tool doesn't come free,however,for the price of choice is responsibility. It is enjoyment.
Choice is power. Choice is at the heart of life. It's the creative power of life. Life is always changing and we have to make lots of choices. We often need to check where we are on our journey. We need to ask questions: Am I moving closer to my goal? If not, what action will I take now to make myself realize my goals?
And our life becomes more convenient or comfortable because of them. For example,you decide which stores to shop at and which bus station to go to. But the decisions that we make to sculpt our life are much more important than deciding where to shop. The more we understand the difference between small and big decisions,the more pleasure we will get.
Life is like a chess game. All chess lovers realize that it isn't necessary to win to enjoy the game. Make the best moves you can under the conditions. Then you can enjoy your life.
A. Why is choice so great? B. The pleasure is in the playing. C. In fact, we have to make choices every day. D. But when we accept and carry it out,we get a great return. E. Every choice we make leads us closer to or farther from our goals. |
