So I have been in refelction lately and trying to study some of the choices that i have made over the last year(s), which led me down the path of where I am now. That however is not the topic I am exploring exactly. I have just been wondering about choices and life in general. Every choice that we make has some type of reprecussion, for good or ill. Now I know that what you choose at Taco Bell may seem trivial for such a big word as reprecussion, but we all have ordered the wrong thing at some point in life. Choices are what lead us to where we are and where we're going.
Did you ever think "if only I would have just did something different" or fantasize about traveling back through time to correct a choice that has had an undesireable flavour in your life. I wonder about who I am and how the choices I've made in life have influenced me. Are you the person you've always wanted to be? Ah, what a question. One can always choose what they would want to change about themselves, but do they make the fundamental choice to better themselves, or at least to be happy.
Life is where our choices have led us. There is an image in my mind. I feel like life is like a large intricate spider web, we all start in the middle but from there the paths we can choose can take us any number of directions. There is always a new choice in which web to take, and they all lead to a different ending.
I am in a different place then I was a year ago, even six months ago. I dont know where I'll be in a year but I know that there are many differnt choices and paths for me to take. I believe that I'll always have a choice. That everyone does, the trick is making the right one, cause we have all made the wrongs ones. But. That is life, a tangled web that we weave.

It's kinda like those "choose your own adventure" books, except you can't go back and see what happens if Jack didn't open the door to reveal the mummy who would then slaughter his dog Fido. Ahh to go back and change the past would then alter our future, as only Marty Mcfly could know, and would we really be better off? Maybe altering a past event would then set us up for more failure and correcting a single event in our past would actually make us worse off in the present. Or maybe we accidentally kill our grandfather and cease to exist at all. Better to keep my present where it is and try to to be such a doofus for the rest of it. I guess.
