A choice to make

Within life we are granted many opportunities where we must choose between options. We might not always realise we have these options but as soon as we decide to do something, fate has chosen it's course of action.

Fate is a magical thing that not everyone will always believe in, but for those who do it has a way of shaping someone’s life.

The people that we meet in our journey of life are all challenges that we must face. Each smile that we communicate through and each thought behind the eyes depicts something that we must figure out. Appearance in communication sometimes feels like the most important thing. The way that your eyes meet someone elses whilst you talk or the habits and movements that they have shape the way that you view them.

So sometimes it's good to strip it all away.

Banish what we see and focus instead on what we communicate with one another. The connection that we can spark or the things that we have in common.

With luck you find the person that makes you want to carry on with your day. The person that encourages you everyday to be who you are and not change for anyone. Someone who focuses on what your friendship means to each other rather than seeing each other face to face to know if it will last. People who make you feel like you mean the world by a few simple words instead of a touch of affection. Somebody who cares about how your day was or wants to know the little details of big moments.

People who are forced apart from the start and so work their way to find each other again.

When you choose between options in life, you always get a friendship option.

In my opinion, I will always choose the internet one.
