do we always have a choice?

i really dont think it is choice. theres been times when im at the wrong place at the wrong time. like think about it this way. theres so many people that go to jail for doing nothing. just how the world works...

Welcome to myLot jhendg.. I personally we do have choices my best example is we either do things or we do not, best of all we can control our own choices it is the consequences because of choices that makes things confusing. So to arrive at a choice one must weigh the advantages and disadvantages then arrive at our decision.

I think that we always have a choice. We can't always choose the things that happen in our lives, but we can choose how to react, and we can choose to focus on the positive things or the negative things. There is quote about this topic that I like: "You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses" and it is way that I see it. Sometimes it can be very hard to find the positive things, when you have a lot of problems and worries, but I usually try to focus on positive thoughts and focus on the thing that I am grateful for.

There is always a choice for us to make. It may not be the choices we want, but they are the choices we are faced with msking. If we are confused in making a choice, it is probably the wrong one to choose. Search your heart and you can find the right choices in your life.

Yes, definitely we have a choice. I have a choice not to respond in this discussion but I chose to do so. Which means, you are rational to choose where you want to be in your journey but not in your destination. I also believe that everything happens for a reason. I am also confused but I know we have choices in our journey but God knows our destination.

We always have decisions or choices to make in life. Although of course I believe that there are things that are meant for us. It's just our choice if we're going to pursue it or not, or do anything about it or just accept it. What your friend said was true. We are in the state we're in because we chose to be in it. For example if you're not in school because you don't have money to pay for your studies, you could blame your parents for not working enough to send you to school, but then again, you could do something about it right? You could choose to get a part time job to fund your school needs. Or if you missed an opportunity. You could have done something about it right? But you just never pursued or tried hard enough.

In this topic, I may say, "Choice is the chooser of destiny!" We can never change our destiny just by willing so, but we can change our choice by own will. This change in our choice must change our destiny by the combination of proper plan and real action! So choice has a very important role also in determining life's route towards achievements!! Thanks for this choosy topic and have the choice for real success!!

Yes you right, our life is what we have choosen. every step we take is depend on what choice that we took,it's up to you,you have to decide it with your own risk.. but remember our life has destiny that choosen by Good and we can avoid it.. we as a human being..is only do the best and let Good do the rest..

i believe we always have a choice. happiness is a choice. living is also a choice. faith is a choice. almost all things that require decision making involves making choices.

i think we should always seek the choices. no matter what we are doing or where we are, we should always remember that chances will not come in our side without our efforts to seek and pursue. so we need to make every efforts to do that.

Welcome - Welcome to myLot! I believe every minute in life is about choices. I mean we choose what to do for the day, we choose what to wear, we choose what to eat and we choose to live. So without choices what else would we have.

I don't think that everything, what happens to us, is because of our choice. Life is full with different kind of things, which doesn't depend of us. We can have different kind of wishes, and act very hard to reach some of it, but our life is not constant. People change, weather change, situations too. It's our choice to be in or out of something, but it's not our choice, if we are in something what will happen with it. We can be responsible only for our wishes, our own acting. Sometimes things happen around us, and it's not our fault that we have to suffer, never mind that it was not our decision things to be that way. We are just in, because we don't have what else to do.

yes.. its our choice... wherever you are, what ever you do... what happens to you is always your choice... so don't be confused because nobody will ever decide for except you... not even your parents decides for you because they know its your choice and its your happiness in the end.. :)

I think your friend is right which is good. It's very positive view of life. But I also understand why some people think life is predestined. Our habits, upbringing, and character prevent us to act in many situations. There are many events in my life when I could have acted in some way and change my fate but didn't do it. I blame my indecisiveness, which is one of my biggest flaws. (But I work to change this.)

Yes, I believe life is a choice. Of course somethings are meant to be, but you still have a choice how you will go on with whatever that was given to you in this life. If you have to let go of a lover, maybe that is meant to be, but you still have a choice on how you go on without him and to find someone better then him and make yourself happy again.

In my way of thinking its both. It is choice but its every one of yrou past coices that lead up to that very moment. its every past choice that makes that to be. but its still your choice of what to do when that moment comes.
