My choice has consequences?

Agreed - that's a powerful thought.

All choices have consequences and if they are not good choices then there is always a way out. We have all been given free will. It depends on how we choose to use it.

EVERYTHING in life is a choice.......

How very very true.

YEP!

My lifes path has been chosen by others and with what seems no consequence either. Maybe not in this life but we all have to answer for our sins.

I've had many things happen to me that I didn't choose, and I wonder why

I've seen many people get away with terrible deeds, even be rewarded

It's all a mystery to me

I'm with heritic...

I do wonder why my consequences don't have choices though? They do in dyslexia land where every thing is correct but seemingly backwards to those who don't dwell there on a regular basis.

And then there is the imposing thought of "what choice did I make to get the consequence of being born to live this life?" Oh that's right I didn't make a choice because IF I did then that would imply I lived before I was born...so I am still living....and I will be living when this body dies....it sure is tuff here in deslexialand...

Absolutely agree, as I've said often, forgiving doesn't mean there is no consequence as in someone does something horrendous to us and we forgive but the consequence may be we cannot go around them..

Doghunter,, I just had a thought, it's kind of hard to think life sucks because it's not like we have anything to compare to..... if you were standing there in front of God(or they who may be asking) and you had a choice, well you see the quandary. Maybe we WOULD choose if it meant we choose between feeling everything or feeling nothing. Deep thoughts abound.

Yes. Choice is a very powerful thing. Good thought of the day.

Amen to that!

this is true that is why you need to think before you act ....instead of reacting ....sometimes you have to put your foot in someone's else's shoe to understand them and by. that I mean .in there space in what they have been through maybe they didn't come out so good ....you need to have. some understanding for them but don't let them put any negative energy into your life .....you are also not free of the consequences of the choices others make with ......that touch you ....in any way ......and some times that can be just as hard to take ..I have learned this ...and have had to learn to accept a consequence that took place in my family ....and it hurts ...and it will never be hole again ....I have to accept that .....so you have to continue ....in Eather position .... take care of your heart .....god bless

StillInTheNight,

Choice? You are right. Any decision made based on the judgement of the chosen selection has a consequence but it is possible that the outcome was expected or the outcome was not the expected one.

In other words, if the choice made produceses the expected out come, then it was the right choice, even if the expected outcome is a negative one.

Bull. That's one of those "feel good" fairy tales we get told. But it's not even true.

I didnt choose to be born. I didnt choose to be hearing impaired. I didnt choose to be born in to a dysfunctional family. I didnt choose to move every 6 months when growing up. I didnt choose to lose my eyesight.

We don't CHOOSE the hand we are originally dealt. We can only choose how we play the cards. And even then it's out of our hands sometimes....
