The choices we make in life

Take us in different paths.

We always stop to think,

Later on in life- What if?

Would the grass have been greener on the other side?

If I'd made the other choice, what would've happened?

Do the choices we make

Define our life,

Setting us on a particular path?

Life is always about choices,

And we never know for certain

Whether the choice we made is

Right or wrong,

Because, as it is said,

"In life, there is never a definite right or wrong,"

Rather, we take the path

That leads us to a better future

For ourselves, and those with us.

Revelations about life always come

At different points in life,

Forcing us to reflect, and wonder-

Is this the appropriate life for us?

That's just life, in general.

We may never know

What the other path may have been

Holding for us,

And we may never get the chance to.

But our obligation to reflect

Always makes us wonder,

About the current path we're in,

And the decisions we took

To chance upon the current path

We tread on.

The path we take

Also starts to really define our personality.

The choices we had to make,

The sacrifices taken,

And the maturity we seek

Define what really took us on path we are on now.

Any decision taken can lead

To a different turning point, or a dead-end-

Thus making us reflect on the decisions we took,

And seeing where life eventually took us to.

But, there is always one sure thing:

Like change being constant in our lives,

There are always choices.

These voice may or may not be good,

But they are there,

With every step we take.

It forces us to adapt,

Continuously testing us;

Our strengths, our weaknesses,

Our willpower, and the determination we have.

It compels us to see how well we fit,

And of our survival.

But that's life-

Life is about survival,

"Survival of the fittest."
