Wrong Choices

Choices, are the greatest blessings in disguise, I'd say. Most of the time, people are never aware that choices do exist. They are so obsessed with the ones at hand, they forget the fact that such a phenomenon throws them a wide range of options.

To me, "I had no choice", is the weirdest one can spell out. "I had overlooked the other choices", would be a more realistic statement, even if it sounds self-confessing.

Wrong choices are often made out of enthusiasm. Fun tightens the grip. A smooth road makes you believe you're on the right track. As always, you ignore the early signals. You turn a blind eye to realism. The whole thing dips you into oblivion. You have the greatest time of your life.

Prosperity and well-being drive you to ecstasy. The rest is history.

When realism takes its course, people come to terms with it. You begin to understand the enormity of your decisions. Once you've understood, you still have two choices to make. One, accept that you made the wrong choice and move on. Two, stay back with the wrong choice and please your ego.

Choice One is not for the weak-hearted. People who are afraid of living with regrets often resort to staying back.

Make all your mistakes early in life. People don't tolerate failures in the later stages. People dying down at first sight of a failure are the cursed ones.

Wrong choices are pretty difficult to be detected early on. When is the right time to take diversion? The answer is easier said than done. When the going gets smooth, it's the time to revisit what you've done. These wrong choices stick to you. They follow you like the Hutch Pug. They make you obsessed with them. They give you little time to judge them. They set you up. Suggestive thinking makes you believe you've made the right choice. When you notice any two of the said symptoms, that's the time to shed your obsessions and make informed decisions.

Take my word. It's never too late.

  2. Very good.
    I don't believe in choices.
    You may feel.. there may be multiple choices.
    But only one is to be chosen. Definitely it is not wrong choice.
    Because It is happened to be chosen anyway.
    It always happens what is to be happened whatever your choice.
    Nothing to regret it.
