Well... What is CHOICE all about? Personally, I believe that CHOICE will enable you to discover yourself and make you appreciate life more...
In this rat race that we all fall in to, we are faced with tremendous pressures from within and without that sometimes lead us down the wrong path. What happens then? Do we give up to whatever comes at the end of that road? Or do we turn back and start all over?
Starting over is probably the most difficult thing to do in our life. If you have been in a relationship before which unfortunately ended, I guess that waking up the day after the break up was probably a difficult thing to do right? I mean having to face the world after a night (probably) of tossing and turning in bed unable to sleep nor unwilling to face that it is over. When morning has broken, you just wish you could crawl under the blanket and not having to get up right?
In this current society where we have all kinds of social networking websites, the pain that a break up can cause may be even greater. Image the day after when you log on into your Facebook account and saw the relationship status part now blank after your ex removes you from the list. I read an article somewhere recently which pointed out that "unfriending" someone from Facebook is a cruel and thoughtless action. I don't disagree with that view.
If you think such a situation is bad, what about someone losing the one they love... For good?
Death is never an easy thing to face. We can console the bereaved with kind and thoughtful words, but does it actually lessen the pain? I think not. Having faced such a scenario before, I can't even remember who were at the funeral on that day. I could remember shaking hands with a long line but their consoling words were somewhat hollow in the circumstances.
I guess that in life, the only constant is change. There will always be changes brought about by the many variables in the world. There can be changes in relationship, work, technology etc.
CHOICE made me realize what I have been missing in my life. A support group... People who won't (I think) prejudge you as you go through your ups and downs in life. People who are willing to help you as and when you require it. They will laugh with you in your times of joys and ecstasy but won't let you cry alone when you just can't help shedding those tears...
I think CHOICE is about lasting relationships... Friendship till the end...
And what we wouldn't give to have that?
