Whatever we’ve chosen and whatever we’ve done will eventually guide us to where we are destined to be, changing our fate little by little to the point where we couldn’t accept it at times. Unlike the storybooks where the writers would determine the endings on their own free wills, we are not fully having control of our lives, for the slightest luck may affect the outcome. We pay for what we get and even times where we pay for what we don’t get; similarly, we pay for what we do and what we don’t do. We may not be getting the best for helping a person in need, but we would receive the reward down the journey of life; we may not be feeling the changes after a decision being made, but we would definitely get it someday. Though we are told to do what we are supposed to, we might still have them slipping off our minds, hence receiving replies for the actions taken in life. When it happens, we defend; when we defend, we give reasons; when we give reasons, we are actually giving excuses. Reasoning might explain the situation, but somehow, it would still sounds like excuses, especially when we are too angry to listen to one. A smile may costs a person’s heart, a single word may costs our friendship with the closest and a picture may costs the trust of others; prices to be paid when we choose an option, when we not brave enough to step aside, when we not know how to react for the very first time.
