Its a cold winter night..the wind is playing its usual music outside my window, while the street lights keep it company. I looked outside and saw a full moon. It was so round and so perfect, i hadn't realized that i spent 15 minutes gazing at it trying to find a default, i could almost see it smile at me. The truth is, i couldn't find anything wrong with it. It is a perfect circle, because it is god's creation. It looked so far away, yet shined as if it were hovering above the roof next door. I looked at this silver moon and i was struck with a sudden rush of inspiration. The thoughts came running into my mind as though trying to catch a train that is leaving and may not come back!
I wonder, when we are presented with choices in life, which one do we choose? I also wonder, which of these choices is an opportunity, and which is a test? I know that many of you are wondering the exact same thing i am. Everytime i was presented with two choices in my life, i wondered..which one? I know many of us will say "it depends", and it is true, it does depend. But if these choices were able to talk, they would also wonder which of us they will best fit with. I think that the most important condition that we should worry about when making any decision, is happiness. When you are presented with two options at any point in time, ask yourself only one question. Which one will make me happy? Life doesn't care how much money you make, or which school your degree is from, or where you will end up living and settling to start your family. Life will only present these opportunities and chances, and then it will wave its hands good bye and move on to the next person who will be faced to make the decision you once had to make. Upon each decision made on this planet, and throughout these years, is a different outcome. Do you think you are the only one who once asked yourself "which school should i graduate from in order to make a good living and achieve my dreams?!" Well, i am afraid i have to say that you are not the only one. In fact, you asked the same question that millions of people before you have asked themselves. The question was always the same throughout the years, but the outcome was always different with each and every one of us because we all had different answers in order to reach certain goals. You are probably wondering where i am getting at with all this, and it is simple. Do whatever makes you happy, because once this decision is made, life will definitly give you another one. The new choices that you may have to make are probably going to be harder the more you grow and the older you are. At the age of 10, your choices were "do you want chocolate milk or apple juice?" At the age of 15 your choices were something like this "What color dress should i wear for my birthday?" At the age of 25 you ask yourself "should i marry him?" At the age of 30 you say "Which preschool shall i put my babies at?" and the list goes on. Therefore, whatever your heart tells you to do, do it. Your heart wants you to be happy, and it is the only one that will surely get you to happiness because it knows you best. It carries so many of your deep thoughts that you dare not share with the world. It quietly guides you through life down the path of happiness, but many of us unfortunatly don't listen to it. The sounds around us distract us from the most important voice within.
I believe that when we have two choices, and we are afraid to make the one that we think is the road to our happiness, and we decide on the one that makes more sense or seems logical, we just wasted a perfect opportunity. Whenever you have a chance to be happy, take it. It is said that you should live every day like its your last, and it is a very true saying, simply because one day your going to be right.
