To be or NOT to be

Sometimes to live a life means to choose, to decide.
We decide on what to believe and what to not; what to do and what to not.
A lot of people making decision only to regret it another day.
No one will be able to tell, whether one has made the right decision or not. It's all in the person's hand. We may pray to God for wisdom, but at the end of the day, our body and soul will be responsible for the choice that we've made.

I always love these lines, uttered by King Baldwin IV in the Kingdom of Heaven (my favourite movie ever!)

"You see, none of us chose our end really. A king may move a man, a father may claim a son. But remember that, even when those who move you be kings or men of power, your soul is in your keeping alone. When you stand before God you cannot say "but I was told by others to do thus" or that "virtue was not convinient at the time. This will not suffice. Remember that."

and so does this:

"There will be a day when you will wish you had done a little evil to do a greater good" (by Princess Sybilla)

***

I wish that I'm wise enough to decide.


Ps: King Baldwin IV was portrayed by Edward Norton. He has a calming voice. ^_~
