Let it All Fly By

The most difficult thing to do in this world is not an act of bravery or love but rather a choice. The decisions made in an individual's life shape their personality, and their lifestyle. Most decisions may be simple and overlooked, like choosing what to wear in the morning or what to get to eat at a restaurant. However some of those decisions can alter everything about you, like choosing whether to do drugs or stay clean. Theses life altering paths usually become worse without any action. Choices are inevitable and there is no way around them. That is why you should not just do nothing and let all your decisions fly by without making a choice when this happens you have no say in how your life will turn out.

The consequences of not doing anything, are easily understood. If you do not do anything, you have no control over your choice, and it will no longer even be a choice but rather a decision with only one option. Also your life will fly by ridiculously fast without sense of direction and no clear path. When put in a position when you would not want to make a choice because the decision is to difficult not making a decision at all will end you up even farther from anything you wanted in the first place.

With the consequences of not doing anything, why do people just sit there. It may be thought as an easier path or they might think their making the right decision by not making a decision at all. They are right, it is a lot easier but it does not get you what you want but most of the time the complete opposite side of the spectrum. Also without making decisions their life has less choice and less stress until your indecision catches up with you and kicks you in the butt.

This indecision gives a path or an option without any choices like making the directions of your life a one way shot to death without any excitement or adventure. Let alone missing out on all that is good in this world.

You can not live in a state of indecision, a choice must be made, an action must be taken. When life gives you a problem make choices, support your decisions and accept the consequences. Letting your life fly by is to dangerous to let happen. When life flies by without decision often life makes decisions for you putting you in extremely bad situations, situations you probably would not like to be in. Life does not make decisions for you in your best interest but rather in no ones best interest. It does not care if you get carried away and can not decided whether to stop punching the guy that tried to steel your wallet on the street, so you just continue punching until he is dead. Which puts you in another situation where a choice must be made on what to do. Letting life fly by is dangerous just make some choices to live.

The choice to live in indecision is a choice that should never be made. The limits of action are restricted if choices can not be made. Life is turned up side down and spun around faster and faster. Until you get to a point, a point of no return where your life has been spinning so out of control there is no choice thatcan be made that will set you free. There is no way to get out of its downward spiral, except when the spiral stops and your branch on your family tree stops growing.

So to make choices empowers and establishes control over your destiny, then why not decide. With every action there is a reaction with every cause there is an effect. Understanding of the choices being made liberates the soul's confusion and allows choices to be made more effectively. This paper will sadly not be able to help that many people that have difficultly making choices and just let it all fly by, because most undoubtably they will not make the decision to read this.
