Choice

"I don't have a choice." "It's not like I have a choice." Don't we always hear that same old overused excuse? Yes, you seen right. I wrote excuse. It is an excuse because we all HAVE a choice. We've always had and always will. But people choose not to choose. Why? Because it's easier having to think that we don't have a choice. That way, we don't have to break away from the old habit. People sometimes hate change. They rather choose to choose the bad/worse/lesser of the two choice because they want the easy way out. For example, get a new job when you're unhappy with the old, dump your current boyfriend cause he's a total asshole, or even tell your friend she's a bitch. Come to think of it, people choose not to choose because they're afraid of the unknown. Afraid that the new job will be worse than the previous, afraid that they'll never find someone better, afraid they'll never have another friend. I guess sometimes, we, as humans; thinking, living beings, need to take the leap of faith for we don't know what better things lie ahead of us. I think I need to take the leap of faith. I need change. I need to make a choice.
