Goals, Choices, and Costs
Goals, Choices, and Costs
By: Tom Wright
Nov. 1997
In life, we need goals,
one must have goals,
both short and long term.
Most goals are never achieved however,
without our willingness to pay the price.
Gain without sacrifice,
is often shallow and meaningless.
All goals come with a price!
Education,
A career,
To excel at any particular endeavor,
Popularity,
Fitness,
Marriage,
Children,
Riches,
All good, but temporary, goals.
Life consists of choices, actions, reactions,
and their inevitable Cost's.
The ultimate choice we're required to make?
To serve God or Mammon.
God, gave us a choice,
the price,
your soul.
