Choices In Life

In life, we have choice in everything. Do or don't do, go or don't go, work or don't work, be male or be female (yes, you can 'choose' this by yourself now!), be happy or be sad, everything is a choice.

Whatever choice we make, HAVE NO REGRETS.

I chose to buy an apartment in Bukit Beruntung, thus I shouldn't regret it even though it's lying idle and has no prospect of growth in the near future.

I chose to work for my present company, thus I shouldn't regret it even though it's starting to look more like a flagging ship than a flagship.

I was 'chosen' by my company to be posted to a faraway place to work, so even then I shouldn't regret it even though I'm forced to spend far more time travelling to work and incurring more costs for fuel and toll.

But like I said, in life we do have a choice, even in a 'no choice' situation. If you look at it, I could have chosen to quit or to accept the posting. I 'chose' to accept the posting.

A friend of mine, skymagenta, told me something related, haiku-style:
When you cannot choose
Then it's your destiny
Doesn't mean you should give up

Agree with destiny, but never give up.

Thanks, skymagenta.
