Choose



What do you want to be when you grow up?


At its very basic level, the Divergent World asks the young reader or movie viewer, "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

It is never too early to start asking that question, though, if you are not careful . . . you might answer the question too late ("Choose!" --- or take note of the Factionless).

"Who am I?"

"Why on Earth am I here?" ("Why am I here on Earth?")

"Why was I born?" "What is my Purpose?"

"Who, or What, am I going to choose to become?"

NOTICE! If YOU do not answer these questions for yourself . . . someone out there will step up and answer it for you. They will label you . . . type you . . . segregate you . . . assign you . .. . relegate and delegate you . . . place you . . . appoint you.

I don't know about you . . . but I do not want that.

I'm not sure that I believe in Destiny . . . but I do believe in Choice. Free will.

Free will is that amazing gift from God that He intended to run parallel to His Sovereignty. He created us with the ability to do random -- unpredictability -- and running outside of the box. 

So . . . choose.
