“The Choice”

There are times within the day when we can’t help but think…
…to think of ‘what’ it could be…
…and to think about ‘how’ it should be.

We let our thoughts fly up so high to the point that we ‘forget reality.’ We daydream about the possible consequences of the choices we make.

Take it or not.
We lose ourselves in a convoluted reality that poisons us. It makes us euphoric and addicted to the lie at the same time.

When standing face-to-face with reality… from the hand of a friend… a single curious thought makes it dangerous.

The choice is yours to make.

The war right in front of us is a bitter reminder that we cannot escape the reality of the choices we make.

All it takes is one little taste.

Take it or not, the choice is yours to make. All it takes is one little taste.
