Choice
"The choice is mine."
It always had been. It always would be. To act or not to act. To wait or to go. To close a door or to open one. To retreat from life or to enter it. Every single action is a choice. Doing something is a choice and doing nothing is a choice, and inaction is just as much a choice as aciton is. Consequences follow every choice, action or inaction. Doing nothing is doing something, and in some way someone else is affected by the choice.
"I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope, for hope would be hope for the wrong thing."-TS Elliott
