I read an awesome talk the other day by our loving Prophet President Thomas S. Monson about making choices. Making choices is something we ALL have to do EVERY day. And what a wonderful gift it is to be able to
choose for ourselves our destiny.
President Monson explains that some of our decisions will not matter in the eternal scheme of things but how other decisions we make will and can change our life forever.
Alice was faced with a decision of which path to choose. Yes she may have been in a fantasy wonderland but the Cheshire cat says something very profound. "If you don't know where you're going, then it doesn't matter which path you take." And how true that statement stands.
I know where I want to be, back with my Heavenly Father. And so I strive each day to make decisions that will allow such results. I challenge you to really take a moment to think about your goals in life. Where you want to be, who you want to be and who you want to be with. Are your actions helping or hindering your goals?
President Monson closes his talk with a simple phrase, "Decisions Do Determine Destiny," and I know that is without a doubt a true statement. So next time your faced with a big decision think of Alice and her lack of knowing where she wanted to be and then remember that you know what you want...
Eternal Happiness.
