if offered the choice between hope and despair one would choose despair,
when given the choice between life and death, someone would choose death,
when faced with doing good or evil one would choose evil,
that someone could choose to hurt rather than help,
or violence over loving.
How can anyone choose to make the world a little worse rather than better,
serve oneself when one could serve many,
choose to willfully hurt themselves over health,
insult others instead of compliment?
We can choose to step on those around us or lift up those who need a hand.
We get to decide between stupidity and wisdom,
and making friends or enemies.
We get to choose to accept rejection or forgiveness,
offer grace or judgment.
Only we get to decide the kind of person we are going to be.
What are you going to choose?
