The Choice...








Choice is virtually everything in life. People make choices every day; its either it has to do with your personal life, business, academics and so on. When making a choice in life you have to consider first "how will it affect me?"

For example, you are broke and in desperate need of money to pay your house rent and you are a fixed deposit banker (didn't know what name to give this kinda job) and someone comes to deposit a huge amount of money and tells you he won't be back for it until the next year. The usual human character is to want to take the money... this is where the issue of choice comes in.

If you decide to take the money to pay your house rent with the mind-set "he won’t be back for it till the next year" and you are happy that that issue is clear but the man suddenly comes for his money... what happens?

The police gets involved, you are asked to pay back the man’s money. Obviously you get sacked from work and probably the police arrest you. You end up spending more money than you bargained for at that period of time... many of those things you could have avoided this by choosing not to steal the money, and even asking the man to lend or something.

    Unfortunately, most of us don't make wise choice. We are blinded by our desires. Most times we do things knowing fully well the consequence. We just don't bother about the consequence and we look at the pleasure at the moment and ignore the pain that will follow.
