True Freedom of Choice

I just saw this on the blog of Julie McCall French. I hope she doesn't mind if I use it. It said just what I've been thinking this week surrounding the Pro-life march in DC, our new President's very anti life agenda, etc.

Choosing

I could have more time,
more house,
more room.
but I choose you.


I could have more money,
more things,
more dinners out…
I choose you.

I could have more me-time,
more sleep,
more freedom;
I choose you.

I could have less mess,
less cooking,
less laundry;
I choose you.

I could have less school,
less PBS,
less PB and J;
I choose you.


But because of you,
I have MORE.
More love,
more memories,
more smiles,
more delight,
more tenderness,
more patience,
more joy,
more faith.


I have no doubt it is a good choice.
