We Did Not Choose To Be Born...But We Can Choose Now!

I tell myself sometimes that if i was pre-informed about what to expect from life then maybe i would have chosen to stay back from where we came from or maybe choose never to grow or even choose to die younger...Oh yes i think all that! But am grown now and there is so much to live for,ranging from family to aspirations. I have now chosen not to fail myself. I used to look for who to blame for not telling me what this life was all about but truth is i cant blame no one. I have been enlisted in this life race without my consent...and so are we all.

Life presents us with too many options and no clue for what we should follow, only our conscience to guide us. Our parents give us religion with the hope that it will aid us to make good decisions, but in recent days i have seen a lot of people questioning our various religions(this is a topic for another day). We are at the mercy of our conscience and in a rather funny way our conscience is also at our mercy. What a life!

Lets skip the preamble, we are here already so lets do this life! We did not choose to be born but we are here already to run this race. The least we can do for ourselves is to make our stay here relevant. How do we do this? By choosing not to give up on ourselves. Find what motivates you and keep your motivation going. Do not wait for this life to finish without doing nothing.

A friend of mine was speaking with me last week and said an uncle told her she was not created to own her own business  because she wont be able to compete with already established businesses. She was already believing and was at the verge of shutting down her dreams. I told her He was wrong about her. The thing is the minute she takes his word, she has no one to blame for not being herself but only herself. So dont shut down yet because you have experienced a number of obstacles. There is still time to be relevant. There is still time to do different and do better. All you need to do is to take the time and live the time!

We did not have the opportunity to choose to be born but we now have the opportunity to choose how we will live! CHOOSE RIGHT!
