Choice in My Life
In our daily lives, we have many choices to make: what to eat for supper, what clothes to wear, what to do on weekends…
At certain times in our lives, we need to make more critical choices, such as which school to attend, what job to take or who to choose as husband or wife. Yes, life is a matter of choice. Seemingly, it means a choice of tangible things. But in essence, it means choosing a way of life.
Life is to be lived, savoured; enjoyed: not wasted or complained about.
Hardly can we forget the time when our society faced a grave threat from the life-and-death disease--SARS. Yet, even during those dreadful times, some afflicted people remained optimistic. Instead of wearing neutral white masks, some people turned to colourful ones, and thus displayed a happy mood. Some creative people coined SARS as an acronym for "SMILE AND REMAIN SMILING." I was deeply touched by their optimism, nearly forgetting that we were still in a battle. People who survive these kinds of circumstances, at some point, decide to carry on: in spite of the overwhelming odds.
Every morning when we get up, we have a choice of how we want to approach life that day.
As for me, I choose to be cheerful. Choice in My Life
