Life Is About Choices

JOYPEACE

===================== I went to the supermarket to get a packet of CaiXin (a type of vegetable). I didn't really know what it looked like, so I grabbed a packet of some other vegetable, which was actually KaiLan (another type of vegetable). After paying, I asked the cashier, "What type of vegetable is this? Is it CaiXin or KaiLan?" He replied, "Whatever vegetable you think that is, then that will be the vegetable that you want." After I left the supermarket, I laughed all the way home. At night, I suddenly felt something in the past come back to me, and it started to hurt me a lot. I started crying very hard. Then it was a MountainWings Moment. "Whatever vegetable you think that is, then that will be the vegetable that you want." Apply it to life. Isn't it the same thing? "However you want life to be, it will be the way you see it as." I never realized how true it was when people always told me that life is made of choices. Not until that very night did I realize that it was so true. I stopped crying. I made a choice to forget the past; a choice to go on in my life. I knelt down and told God, "Father, no matter what happens, I will choose you; and I will choose life, and not death." Previously, I have tried taking my life more than five times; but after that night, I promised that I would never do it again. God always has His own timetable. When you need Him the most, and He seems silent, it doesn't mean that He is not there. He has plans for you. So, whatever happens, do remember, "Whatever vegetable you think that is, that will be the vegetable that you want!" Life is made up of choices. ~A MountainWings Original by Angela Guo, Singapore~
