With all the hardships we face, there are often many ways out even if it has to be hard.

Is life what we make it to be for ourselves or is life actually getting harder?

We choose everything we do in life. We choose who we want to spend our lives with. We choose to have kids. We choose what job we want.

Most of us do, at least. Maybe not those in countries with dictatorships.

Honestly, it's tough for many to make wise choices because of the environment. I mean, how many people were raised by Marine Corps drill instructors? :D Think about it.

That's true but God takes into consideration the environment to some degree.
