Choices and Chances
>
> "When we meet the right person to love when we're at the right place at
> the right time. That's chance.
>
> When you meet someone you're attracted to, that's not a choice. That's
> chance.
>
> Being caught up in a moment (and there's a lot of couples who get
> together because of this) is not a choice. That's also a chance.
>
> The difference is what happens afterward. When will you take that
> infatuation, that crush, that mind-blowing attraction to the next level?
>
> That's when all sanity goes back, you sit down and contemplate whether
> you want to make this into a concrete relationship or just a fling. If
> you decide to love a person, even with his faults, that's not a chance.
> That's choice.
>
> When you choose to be with a person, no matter what, that's choice. Even
> if you know there are many people out there who are more attractive,
> smarter, and richer than your mate, and yet, you decide to love your
> mate just the same, that's choice.
>
> Infatuation, crushes, attraction comes to us by chance. But true love
> that lasts is truly a choice. A choice that we make.
>
> Regarding soulmates, there's a beautiful movie quote that I believe is
> so true about this: "Fate brings you together, but it's still up to you
> to make it happen."
>
> I do believe that soulmates do exist. That there is truly someone made
> for you. But it's still up to you to make the choice if you're going to
> do something about it or not. We may meet our soulmates by chance, but
> loving and staying with our soulmate is still a choice we have to make."
