The path of choice .....

Anglin Lake, Saskatchewan
I have been thinking a lot about life and the choices that take you down your life's path.  I have learned a lot from my choices and some of the wrong paths that I have chosen to take.  Often I think about the choices I made in my teens and how hard I had to work through and learn from the consequences of those choices.  

Since that trying time I have worked hard to stay on a better path for my life because I have been joined by my husband and our two daughters.  My choices have a huge impact on my family. 

I have been watching people around me making very selfish and devastating choices in their lives, and I am feeling so helpless.  Our choices in our adult life have such a wide-sweeping impact on so many lives.  How do people make the choices that they do and feel okay about it?  Do they convince themselves that their actions and ultimate choice is really the best for everyone or just themselves? 

I keep having the verses in 1 Corinthians 10:22-24 run through my head.
You say, “I am allowed to do anything”—but not everything is good for you. You say, “I am allowed to do anything”—but not everything is beneficial. Don’t be concerned for your own good but for the good of others.
​​I'm at a loss - Is there anything we can do? 

​The only thing I have come up with is to be a positive example as a wife, mother and friend, and through this I hope I can make a small difference.
