Outside the Conformity Office (Photo credit: cote)

“Life is the sum of all your choices.” ~Albert Camus

When we make choices, we have to own them. Most people do not own the choices they make. Oftentimes, they find someone to blame when things go wrong in their life. I just like to say, we were born with free will. Yes, we were taught to conform certain rules or guidelines to have certain “order” in our society. But we have to remember too that together with conformity, we have our own idea and choice.

People who are “peace-loving” do not necessarily help because in a way blind faith leads them. One way or another one has to see flaws or cracks in certain system. There is no perfect system.

We make our own life. Our decisions shape and mold our life into what we want it to be. We follow our path and if there are none, we make them. Does a person really tear a wall down to accommodate themselves? If it is needed, then why not? Life’s decisions can be checked and balanced. While one is still alive, one can create change and make their life better.

Let’s not look back and say I should have done that or I wanted this. Society today is not as strict as our ancestors. Surprisingly, society today is more accepting and open-minded. Summing up everything in your life, can you say you have done a great job? Can you look yourself in the mirror and honestly tell yourself, “My life is great! I can die tomorrow!” If you can not answer even yourself straightforwardly, “YES!” – Perhaps it’s time to do something to change your life. It’s never too late, remember, “Your life is a sum of all your choices.”
