11 Life-Affirming Poems About Choices
As a serial indecision-maker, I know what it feels like to be paralysed when it comes to making life choices. In the past, I would spend days, weeks and months in inner turmoil, weighing up the pros and cons of situations, trying to predict every outcome, whilst exhausting myself in the process.
Over the years, I’ve come to realise – there’s not really a ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ decision, it’s simply about choosing the best possible path available to you now.
Sometimes the best possible path may not be easy; it may take you on a wild ride of challenges and growth, and other times bring you crazy amounts of joy.
Either way, making decisions isn’t a straightforward process; it’s a journey of life experience and self-discovery, where you learn about yourself along the way. I hope this collection of poetry about choices inspires you today.
Poetry About Choices
1. Choices - Jadine Lydia
i used to think that decisions
were the be-all and end all,
until i realised
that every decision
has its rise and falls
and so i choose
wisely and divinely
to embrace them all.

3. OPINIONS - Jadine Lydia
others may say that my decisions are wrong
but i stand in my power and hold myself strong
because the truth of my soul knows the way
and with this courage, i start a new day –
owning every choice i make.

for what life has in store for me now
and even if it is the wrong decision

i gain clarity, patience and wisdom.

11. Golden Kingdom – Jadine Lydia
She shifted,
left to right, right to left.
Wobbling around her decisions,
her freedom, her intuition,
her kingdom.
In which she knew existed,
but did not yet live in.
Her inner realms,
golden with possibility.
Her mind lost,
in absolute uncertainty.
Yet she knew.
She always knew.
That she was right,
this was not her life.
It was just another verse,
in her freedom song,
in which she had to let go,
and simply move on.
Swiftly.
extract from – ‘And So She Chose’
