Choices

Choices are a part of life.  The choices we make are a direct result of who we are, and have a direct effect on who we become.  

I have recently had to make one of the worst choices a person should have to make.  I have loved ones who have made this same choice, some recently, some in their past.  When they faced and made their choice, I felt horrible for them, even though I could only imagine what they must be feeling and thinking.  

Now, having faced and made the choice myself, and knowing some of the things they felt and thought, I feel even more terrible for them.  

Choosing between people you love is not something we should have to do, but sometimes it is the only way to be able to keep at least some of them with you.  All I can do now is pray for the ones I had to leave behind.
