Choice

Written by: Cole Hinshaw

Choice... All action is reaction.

A decision based on the division of hate and love. Doesn't matter, whatever it was you were dreaming of, if you don't take the chance, and make a stand against the darkness.

Take the pain out of the equation, for that is the path to true damnation. An unruly sanction. Set upon those whose foes are given the power to throw their own life out of balance.

Take this challenge, because I assure you, the hits you take will only help to make you stronger. No longer the product of a sick environment. Because every ounce of energy spent making love, apart from war, is how stars are born.

So take this advice from one whose life has been flipped by reaction. Do the best you can, to always be the better man, because I know you can.

It's in you!

Now find your voice...

Get out there and make the choice...

    "Everyone must choose one of two pains: The pain of discipline or the pain of regret" - Jim Rohn. Truly encouraging! I liked this a lot.
