Chance or choice?


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 afterwards. 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 and stay loyal to 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 soul mates, 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 soul mates 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.

To make the relationship work even when things seem stale, and when temptations abound, that's a choice you have to make.

We may meet our soul mates by chance, but loving and staying with our soul mates is still a choice we have to make.

We came to the world not by finding someone perfect to love...BUT to learn how to love an imperfect person perfectly
...

someone send me this long time ago...I agree wif every words he/she wrote...it's by chance that our paths cross but it's my choice or urs whether we want to stay together or be apart...whether we want to name this relationship as friend or more than just friend...whether we would expect something from this relationship or nothing at all...whether i still want to give a try or just give up...
