Question

article on my life my choice but not related to any chapter

Answer 1

When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice.”(Unknown) Life meant everything to me and will mean everything to me. Once a human being came out and saw the world, there is nothing but decide which way to go. Sometimes I find myself building my own way of life, and see myself starting to walk. Living in an enormous life might confuse me but creating a way will deliver me hope. Life can face entirely different situations when you make your own choice. Life is extremely amazing experience that progress with choices. Choices can vary the destiny. “The difficulty in life is the choice.” (George Moore: the Bending of the Bough) Existence might give me difficulty with choices that I have to create. But once I make my destiny, it will give me a new life and new satisfaction. I create my own destiny by coming to United States. If I were not here in this spot, what would I be? I would probably be dreaming something else that is completely different than what I am dreaming now. Choices can bring me many regrets, and stress but looking for a new way to enjoy will help me.

Answer 2

This is what I believe: nobody else has the right to decide how I should live my life. And I don’t want someone who I’ve never met telling if, and when, I will be giving up my life to raise a baby.

People who want to shut down family planning clinics, who think that abortion is immoral; I respect that very much. But the fact is: it’s your opinion. I don’t share it. And I should not be forced to live by it.

I don’t know what I would do if I ever got pregnant unexpectedly. Would I get an abortion? Maybe. Honestly; I really don’t know. But, see, here’s the thing; I’m a middle-class girl from a (relatively speaking) wealthy family. I have a support system, financial backing, and a home I that I have no danger of losing. In other words, I have the luxury of a real choice. But what if my situation was different?

I tried imagining what would happen if I was twenty and working at Wal-Mart. If getting pregnant in the first place didn’t lose me my job, asking for maternity leave certainly would. I would be jobless. I would have, literally, no way to support myself- let alone a baby.

My family could disown me for an unwanted pregnancy, or maybe I don’t have any family left; no place to leave a baby from nine to five, no one to foot the bill for a hospital delivery. I would be utterly trapped.

What if I was being abused?

What if I was raped?

What would I do then?

It’s nice to say that I could raise a baby that was the product of misfortune or poverty. But if my situation was truly desperate like that, I don’t think I could. And I don’t think, truly, that you could either.

I believe that abortion is a personal choice. If you told me that you had gotten pregnant, and decided to keep the baby; I would be nothing but respectful of that decision. And if you told me that you had gotten pregnant, and had decided to terminate that pregnancy; then I would hold your hand, and drive you to the clinic, and sit in the waiting room while you ended your pregnancy. And I would be nothing but respectful of that, either.

If it was me who woke up pregnant- me who was faced with that choice- truly, I have no idea what I would do. But that’s the beauty of being alive today, isn’t it?

I have the power to choose.
