have you ever felt like a decision you make could change the course of your life completely? (and i don’t mean decisions of what clothes to wear.) whenever i come to a point where i have to decide about life issues, first shivers run over me, afraid of making the wrong choice. but is there actually such a thing we can call a "wrong choice/decision"?

every once in a while we have to make decisions, sometimes the choices we have are abundant, sometimes it is quite easy to decide, yet still we occupy our minds with the pros & cons of each option we have. once we have made a decision and we are satisfied with the course our life has taken, there is usually no looking back for us. however, soon as we have to deal with unexpected negative consequences, often regrets fill our minds and what-if questions suddenly arise.

i believe it is completely unnecessary to look back even if we may not be that satisfied with the outcomes. i’ve always been the kind who takes what i get and make the best out of it. making mistakes is human. no one is perfect, mistakes & failures are made to learn from. in fact, mistakes should be considered as opportunities to make things better. we are given those opportunities and should not take them for granted. eventually, we have the ability to choose our own path…

… the choices you make, not the chances you take, determine your destiny…
