Is one choice really an option?

I recently had a conversation with my youngest son and he said that he had do something and he gave only one choice. I thought about it and asked myself if one choice is really an option.
Technically, it is because the fall back option is always to do nothing, but in a practical sense one option is not really a choice.
It would be like asking someone to lunch and they give you a blank stare instead of an answer. Technically the blank stare is an answer, but you probably were looking for them to verbalize or shake their head yes or no.

Opt In to life

You may notice that websites give you the option of opting out of receiving emails from the company or organization. They are required to do this by the ICANN organization.
Sometimes the process is easy requiring a few clicks and sometimes it is difficult.
Life can be the same way. Sometimes people choose to opt out of life permanently and other people choose to opt in no matter how difficult it is.
Make the choice to opt in!

Chronic Happiness

I have given much thought to my plight. I have decided to fight this chronic disease with incurable happiness. In the words of author Shawn Achor and comedian Marcus D. Wiley happiness is a choice. If it's a choice then I will select it. I will choose it on purpose as opposed to accidentally choosing it.
