Choices

Choices!

 Life is all about Choices, the choices that we make and its consequences that follow.

 Entrepreneurs who were on an expansion spree now want to pause, survive and exist first.

We moved around endlessly around the globe polluting the environment, we now want to communicate digitally and stay home safely.

We wanted excitement, parties, entertainment all the time, but now we just want to live in peace.

We chose air conditioned rooms, but now we ask for open air and sunshine.

We chose cooked and processed foods, now we ask for natural and safe foods.

We loved using animals and our natural resources, but we now need the environment.

We loved being on our own, but now feel lonely and need people to talk and be with.

Gadgets were important to us, and dictated our lives, but now we just want to be Human and Natural.

Jobs and businesses were the only thing that we wanted but now just need some happy time with our loved ones.

We never listened to anybody and wanted to just talk, now we want to listen to people, listen to the nature and understand the world where we live.

Health was the last priority after we enjoy our lives, but we now seek only health, and realized that Wealth can happen anytime if we have Health.

Arrogance is now replaced with prayers, Attitude of Gratitude and Attitude of seeing and focusing on the goodness in everything.

Money meant Power, but now Health is Wealth.

Investment and Speculation was more important, now Insurance and Savings are priorities.

Doctors were treated like paid servants, now they are gods and saviors.

People rushed and pushed at Temples, theatres, malls, restaurants and public transport, now we respect and appreciate the need for our private space and social distancing.

Our ego's made us feel invincible, now we pray for survival.

Only I was important, now WE need each other.

Religion, Politics, Financial status, Countries set us apart, now we are all one for survival.

Man progressed ignoring the natural scheme of things without a Goal. Now we just want to reverse the wrongdoings and set things right for a common purpose.

We abused science and technology to lead a fictitious life outside. We now want to be spiritual and return back to reality within.

People who chose Urban cities for work and living, now dream of living at the countryside.

We were in an endless rat race, now we want to pause and be human.

Man chased and struggled for his greed, and now realise what he really needs.

Choose to see the positive side of life, Choose to connect to the universe spiritually, Choose to see the goodness in people, Choose to see the goodness in everything.

Finally it's all about the choices that we made in the past, and the choices that we make now. Choose wisely, Choose Life, Choose Love, Choose Health, and Choose Happiness. All choices will have consequences, Make good choices today so that you don’t have to regret tomorrow. It's all about your choices. The choice is yours!
