the two driving forces behind our decisions are fear and love. you CHOOSE to do something because you are afraid of what the outcome will be if you don't. you CHOOSE to do something because you love something/someone so much. ex: I choose to go to school because I fear my opportunities will be limited if I don't have a degree. ex: I choose to stay in touch with my family even if I don't see them everyday because I love them a lot and I am afraid that this may be the last time I will get to talk to them (my whole thing on life is short). off topic: i hate blogging on my new phone. the ugly tmobile banner is making my blog ugly!
