Choose life!

The past few days were just terrible. I had to take some decisions. Decisions that could change my life. And as is well known, change is something we often dislike. Even if it could make things better. Even if it could take us to a higher level. To a better life. We dislike change and changing because it brings doubt. It brings the uncertainty of things to come. Of a different life.

Changing is never easy. And having to take decisions regarding that change is even worse. But then. Life is change. Isn't it? So maybe we all should really change once in a while. If we like to. If we feel to. Nobody is chasing our tails telling us what to do. Or at least that is the way it should be.

This time I decided not to change. I decided to keep things just as they were. To keep on trying this way, the way I'm trying now. The way I'm living now. Because I like to. Because I want to. Or maybe even because I have to. Who knows?

Changing is part of life. But life is not necessarily meant to keep on changing. It's just a matter of choosing wisely.

In a way it is never too late to help people when they have to take major decisions. And in a way you are always too late, since finally we have to take those decisions by ourselves.

But then, life is change, constantly. Permanently. Even in its most tiny details. Maybe we should just not be afraid too much of changing, because if we really want to live, we have to change.

(life is change - growth is optional: choose wisely)
