Choices

Thanks to a friends post on destiny I have been in a philosophical mindset all day. That post has caused me to think about the concept of choice.

We choose things for the sake of something higher than the immediate choice. An example of this is the choice to eat. We eat to satisfy our hunger not to eat for the sake of eating. So we choose things for something other than the immediate choice.

Choices assume value. And our values assume the good.

Everything you do, you have a choice. Everything. You can either do or do not. It’s that simple. When you choose, you place value over the opposite of your choice and thus showing what you perceive to be good.

So the next time you plan something with a friend and you fail to meet your commitment, remember what you are communicating to them in your choice.
