Choices Part 1

Choices

The choices we make sometimes seem pointless and finite

But they are incredibly connected to an infinite number of possibilities

There is a wide world before us

Waiting to be explored

And touched

In ways we could never understand

Because we are all connected in such a way

That though we may not be seen

Or even heard

We are felt

We cause vibrations in the earth

That travel far distances to move someone else

Most of the time we never know

Because we are too involved in ourselves

To look outside the surface and into the core of the earth

Where a beating heart lies

All of our hearts

Affected by all of our choices

Every single one

And every beat tells us that we are alive

Which is the greatest and most courageous choice we make

And it tells us we are here

We make sound too great to be heard

And we matter

Because if one heart is lost in this universe

We all feel a pain that surpasses vibration and sound

We feel silence

And in silence there is no choice.
