Life's choices

Life is about making choices isn't it.

Different decision made will inevitably leads to a different outcome.

And of course many of us are not expert decision makers. We may say the wrong things, commit the wrong act and simply make a bad choice.

There is one movie that I'd seen and it epitomize what I'm talking about. It also happens to be one of my favourite movie. It's called "The Family Man"

SYNOPSIS -- Jack Campbell (Academy Award ® Winner Nicolas Cage) is a single,
wealthy Wall Street trader living the high life in New York City. All that
magically changes one morning when he wakes up in a suburban New Jersey bedroom with a wife (Tea Leoni) he never married and two kids he never had - the life he would have led if he had made different choices as a younger man. Find out what it takes for a single-minded businessman to become The Family Man in this
wonderful comedy about second thoughts and second chances.

There are always a few movies that will occupy your thoughts at the end of it. This is one of those for me.

It also clearly exemplfy what I wrote earlier. Just like Jack Campbell here.

He paid a price in staking a relationship with the women he loves to pursue a path towards a high paying career.

Fortunately he was able to witness what he had missed out on had he not made that choice. It is a wonderful life with the women becoming his wife and two lovely kids.

He wasn't at Wall Street. Instead, he worked in a car tyre's shop and was their best salesman.

And he starts to love it in no time. It was a kind of lifestyle that no amount of money could buy.

Making lots of money sure feels good. But do you know what you are missing?
