Choice between right and easy.. always..

If there was one thing that I’ve found myself take away from Harry Potter, it’s the fact that ‘life is always a choice between what’s right and what’s easy..

Always..

I’ve found myself conscious so many many times this past semester

-> When I was deciding between catching more sleep and keeping up an appointment..
-> Deciding whether to catch more sleep or go for a class/lab

among many many others..

The number of ‘right‘ choices we make is directly linked to our proactivity or ability to make and keep these promises. We ALWAYS know what the right choice is, yet it’s the convenient path that the easy choice offers that results in us telling ourselves stories to make it seem like the right path.

I was faced with this choice 2 days ago. A choice between re-taking an exam and watching what remains of my ‘last‘ holiday (and all the hype that goes with it..) dissolve and not choosing to re-take it and enjoying the last holiday..

It was a tough one just for the fact the easy path looked really cool..haha.. What’s amazing is that the choice making doesn’t end there – every day I wake up with the choice of cribbing and crying or not..

It’s amazing.. always ends up being this choice between what’s right and what’s easy..

and if it’s right, as tough as it may be – boy, does it feel good!! :)
